Large Rat Caught
Some kind of marauding animal
has been operating Mr. P. Hemp-
hill's, store at Ceylon for some tim
and all efforts to catch the miscreant
has been in vain. Traps and poison
were placed, but all to no avail. Mr.
Hemphill decided as a last resort t,
use a sn:.re and that idea was a
bright one, and the animal was
caught. !t proved to be the great-

will be a relief to have caught thai

After a month visiting with theii
daughter. Mrs. Royden McDonald, at
Gold Pines, Ont., Mr. and Mrs. John
V"ickcns of the Valley returned home
on Friday after a most interesting
and appreciative trip. The weather
was perfect while there as there was
only about two inches of snow fell
one day. Mr. and Mrs. McDonald
reside five miles from Gold Pines and
the only way to reach their place i<
by dog team in the winter or boat in
the summer. When they left for home
last week the ice in the river had
broken up. The home her daughter
and husband occupy is of frame con-
struction and contains all modern"
conveniences and are owned by the
Hydro, for whom Mr. McDonald is an
open tor. There are about 20 houses
in the little- village, but are without
store service, but the people are most
sociable and went out of their way to
make their visit a memorable one*
One thing of Interest noticed by
Mr. Wickens was that the trees in
the swamps are tall and thin, not
more than three or four inches ir
diameter. Going out m the airplane
there was a high wind of 45 miles
and the trip was rough, but on the'

John McFadyen Dies
Death removed one of Ceylon's
most highly respected and well
blown citizens on Teusday morning,
when Mr. John MvFadyen passud
away at the home of his brother.
Mr. Alex. McFadyen. Mr. McFadyen
had been enjoying very good health
until late last fall, when he suffered a
heart attack. Since that time he has
been confined to his bed and passed
quietly away Tuesday morning at
the age of 81 years.
The late Mi 1 . McFadyen was a son
of the late Janet McLi-an and Dun-
can McFadyen and was born near
PriceviUe, where he received his ed-
ucation and grew into manhood. In
1888 he married Janet Muir, coming
to reside at Ceylon at that time. His
wife predeceased him in 1932. There
was no family. Deceased also are
two brothers. Neil and Hugh. Sur-
viving are orte brother, Alexander,
of Ceylon and one sister, Mary Ann
(Mrs. Wm. McLeod), of Portland.
Oregon.
The late Mr. McFadyeji was a man
of sterling worth and was a carpent-
er f,rom his youth. Many of the
homes in this locality were erected
by him and his brother. He wag a
favorite with everyone and his
passing occasions deep regret by a
wide circle of friends.

The campaign in Flesherton for
funds for the Canadian War Services
Campaign, now in progress, commenc-
ed on Monday when the organization
meeting was held in the town hall,
when the following officers were
appointed:
Chairman Ken G. Betts.
Secretary C. P. Wilson.
Treasurer C. J. Kennedy.
Publicity ttanager J. Nuha.
The committee is to meet at once
and organize for the canvass am!
appoint canvassers. No objective for
Flesherton has as yet been set. The
village of PriceviUe has an organiza-
tion of its own and will conduct its
own canvass.
Announcement that Canadian aux-
iliary war services organizations have
agreed to hold one united flnancia'
drive this year, instead of six separ-
ate drives, has met with the warmest
public approval.
It was on the insistence of the
public, in fact, and with the suppor*
of the newspapers jvp^rally, that the
principle of six atfjr'^, in one wa-
accepted not only to\i away with
a large percentage of campaign ex-
penses, but also to relieve as of the
vexatious necessity of responding to
what seemed endless calls for help.
As far as the public is concerned
there is every reason to feel grati-
fied with this arrangement, which
actually was made at our own request
and for our convenience. It is a great
relief, indeed, to know that by donat-
ing once we shall have carried our
our obligations in 'hat respect for the
next 12 months.
Havirar inspired the creation of this
new "six in OTO'' policy, it is the
moral responsibility of every one
us to play our part by supporting
the drive to the fullest possible ex
tent. We must not, moreover, in al 1
fair'ie'':-. give lss to this one drive
than we wotf d srive in total to all six
This money is for the entertain-
ment and for giving comforts to the
bo s in camps in Canada and" also for
those in the centre of the war i:
England. The "boys ov k er. there" de-
pend on the *^nllt back home," si
give generously -when the canvasser
comes to call. ? l^Jiyour son, your
father, yotrr brJth'er. your husband,
or your* sweetheart is on active ser
.vice, then you will want him to b'
happy and comforiabie'w'tm'e *-***'-
Our contributions *fti be our gift t'
those who are figntfng our battles.
Let us dip deep into our pockets and
put the campaign across, so that the
boys will know that all those they
left behind are with them in spirit
and thinking of their welfare.

CHRIST PROMISES POWER
Luke 24: 48, 40; Actn I.
PRINTED TEXT, Act* li 1-12
GOLDEN TEXT. But ye .ball
rciv power, when the Holy
Spirit u com* upon you; and ye
hall b my witneise* both m

frt of the earth. Acts 1:8.

A.D. 30, as far as we are able to
ascertain. Pentecost occurred
ton days later May 28.
Place. The City of Jerusalem,
and, for the most part, the upper
room, wherever that may have
be:i located.
In this lesson we are forcefully
reminded of the significance of
our Lord's last days on earth, of
the definite work which He gave
Bis Church to do, and of the
power which He promised to Hi*
Church for the doing of this
(Teat work, together with the an-
nouncement of the angels con-
cerning our Lord's return.
Our Lord'* Final Word*
The final appearance of our
Lord and His Ascension are re-
4orded only by Mark and by
Luke, though Luke's account is
by far the fuller of the two, both
in the Gospel of Luke and his
Bl historical work, known now
Ithe Acts of the Apostles.
Acts. 1:1 "The former treatise
I made, Theophilus, concerning
all that Jesus began both to do
and to teach. 2. Until the day in
which h* was received up, after
tltipt he nad given commandment
through the Holy Spirit unto th
apostles win 'in he had chosen: 8.
T whom he also showed himself
alive, after his passion by many
proofs, appearing unto them by
the space of forty days, and
apeaking the things concerning
the kingdom of God." In th
opening paragraph Luke gives, as
it were, the three keynotes of the
in...'', to follow: the subject of
the book of Acts is the same as
that of the Gospel (former treat-
ise) the words and deeds of
Jsus; the Acts is the history of
the fulfilment of the commission
of Christ to the disciples to be
witnesses to Him; and again,
this commandment was given
through the Holy Ghost.
The Holy Spirit
4. "And, being assembled to-
gether with them, he charged
them not to depart from Jerusa-
lem, but to wait for the promise
of the Father, which, said he, ye
heard from me: 5. For John in-
deed baptized with water; but ye
hall be baptized in the Holy
Spirit not many days hence."
These words refer to the descent
of the Holy Spirit upon the as-
believers on the Day of
""Tjn days after our
Lord's Ascension, -*uii--"A'- van I
truthfully say that the Holy j
Spirit has continued to abide
upon the Church from that day
until this. In great quietness,
we should all set our souls (till,
silent "to God, and give the
it time to quicken and
us the assurance that
grant Him to work
' therefore, when they
together, askod him,
:d, dost thou at this
, the kingdom of Is-
rael? 7, And he said unto them
H is not for you to know times
or season, which the Father hath
*et within his own authority."
This amazing i|Uestion indicntes
11 established faith in Him as the
Messiah, but betrays, at the same j
time, an expectation that His
kingdom would be to some extent
a temporal one that it would
trve the nation from their de-
pendence on the Romans and re-
t.ii- to them their ancient pros-
perity and power. H. "But ye
hall receive power, when the
Holy Spirit is come upon you."
The Apostles were not only
promised the power of the Holy
Spirit, they were given his power
divine power, power to convict,
power to illuminate, power for
mil-Hi-."" , power when at work in
the hearts of men would actually
transform them. Today the Gos-
pel still lives! Men are saved.
Bins are put away. Hope is horn
ha the human heart. The Holy
Spirit i* ttill with us, but of
eoursr, He will only work through
those who yield to His sovereign
way in th throne-room of their
Hvts.

FARMERS SHOULD PLAN
TO HELP EACH OTHER
- j,
There is an old saying that "the
Lord helps those who help them-
selves," and it would be equally true
to say that "the Lord helps those who
help each other." Many Ontatrio
farmers will literally have to help
each other this year if they cannot
get sufficient help for their own in-
dividual farms.
There will be, from all accounts, a
number of "one-man" farms this
year with a consequent reduction in
crap acres as a result of the farm
help situation, unless farmers co-
operate in the old-fashioned neigh-
borly manner of changing "works"
with each other. It will be recalled
that during severe farm labor short-
ages in the last war, neighbors
worked back and forth helping each
other with seeding . and harvest
operations,
A return to this method of opera-
tion will mean that fanners will In
able to plant and harvest more crop
acres and feed more hogs and cattlt
than they would by attempting tc
run the farm alone.

TO LOSE LICENSES ON
RECKLESS DRIVING CHARGE
Leopold Macaulay's bill to provide
for automatic suspension of drivers'
licenses upon conviction for reckless
or dangerous driving, was approved
with one change by the municipal law
committee of the Ontario Legislat-
ure. Mr. Mccaulay, Conserva-
Mentber for York South and a for-
mer Minister of Highways, agreed
to delete the term "careless driving"
from the bill after several member*
objected that police used this charge
under the criminal code for many
minor offences.
The Highways Traffic Act pro-
vides for suspension of drivers' licen-
se where there is culpability in an
accident causing damage of $25 or
more. The amendment approved by
the committee provides for suspen-
sion where reckless or dangerous
driving convictions are made under
the criminal code, even though there
had been no accident. Restoration o*
license is dependent on filling of
proof of finincial responsibility.
J. P. Bickwell, registrar of motor
vehicles, said that in 10 years there
had been 43,200 licenses suspended
in Ontario following convictions.

aged by D. Leo Dolan. chief of

Tororta Doctor Advisee That

There is too much buying of
vitamin concentrate* and not
enough attention paid to build-
ing up an adequate diet of na-
tural foods. Dr. D. L. Thomson,
professor of biochemistry at Me-
Gill University, last week told
the Canadian Association of Me-

Dr. Thom.'oa'; commenta on.
the national diet followed an ad-
dress by Dr. E. W. McHenry, as-
sociate professor of nhyaiokgt-
cal hygiene of the University of
Toronto. Dr. McHenry spoke of
the value of dietary surveys and
referred particularly to stndie*
which had been made of 100 low-
income families in Toronto.
In these families, the men, he
stated. were the best fed, the
children next and the mothers
wor. Only three of the 100
families received adequate am-
ounts of food. The tack of "pro-
B vitamins, was most evident
MALNUTRITION WIDESPREAD
Both speaiars emphasized that
in time of war it waa imperative.
if Canada ia to pot forth her best
war effort, to pay more atten-
tion to nutrition. They emphas-
ised that this attention most b*
based on knowledge, r.ot popular
fancies. While there may b
little actual hanger in Canada,
tlier waa malnutrition. Dr.
Thomson pointed out, particular-
ly aa lack of the essential mlaer-
a!i and vitamins did not create
hanger in the sense that lack of
calorie* did.

1>UT EFFORT INTO PRODUCTION
In just a few weeks, a large num-
E l>er of Ontario boys in their late
"teens will be on their way from
: *heir city homes to the farm. En-
ouragrcd to do so by the Ontario
CJovernment, these lads will approach
their experience with a feeling that
they are doing something of a ser-
vice to their country.
Practically all of them will be
jfrcen and awkward at their new jobs.
JMany of them will miss at first the
xciteTnent of city life. But if they
aapproach their work with the idea
that they are taking the places of
young men from the rural areas who
liave enlisted in the armed forces and
others who have joined the ranks of
"industrial war workers, they may
apply a seriousness to their tasks
that will make them useful to har
ssed farmers.
Without doubt, a large number of
these boys will take back to the city
next fall a new appreciation of the
meaning of hard work. Several of
them should get a new slant on an
old truth, that in order to produce
Anything worth while, a man must
5>ut real effort into the process of
production.
EARNING ITS WAY
"Wonders will never cease. Due to
increase in earnings it is now con-
fidently expected by the Board, that
the Canadian Nat.iona' Railway will
conclude operations in 1991, without
a deficit. The man who predicted
this even ten years ago would have
t>en thought slightly mad, but it all
jtoes to show that there is no need to
fce despondent in regard to our rail-
way outlook. As business gets better
*hi country may easily support two
major systems, the C.N.R. and the

that two cruisers, three destroyers
and probably other craft were aunk
in a surprise attack. It is reported
there were no British casulties. The
watch dogs or the Empire are con
stantly and quietly on the job, no

EDITORIAL NOTES
How much longer can Mussolini
keep th,e truth from his people, that
every battle he has fought in this
war as been a losing one? When
the break comes there will be plenty
of fight at home for him to look
after. Who knows what the end
will be?

The warm sun is taking down the
snow banks, but the gravel roads
are rough and slow for travel. The
cement highways are bare of snow
and where plows have been use<i
deigning has disappeared. Work at
opening the county highway from
the Feversham corner to Singhamp
ton was halted Sunday evening after
the plow had reached the Mclntyre
sideroad, due to the snow freezing
making it impossible for the plow to
continue.
After signing an agreement with
the Axis Powers Yugoslavia gov-
ernment leaders resigned their posi-
tions and a government favorable to
Britain has tx.en placed in charge.
The Germart^vYvernment has askec
for a statement as to the position ol
the new government in regard to the
pact signed, but so far there has
been nothing but silence in that re-
gard coming fron Yugo-Slavia
From that silence Hitler and his gang
of thieves should realize that the
little country means business in the
defence of their country and will not
allow the Axis to send troops over
their land without a fight. Britain
has mechanized forces in Greece al

FISH, GAME LAWS
*
Last week I mentioned that
there had been other government
bodies concerned with our fish
tmd game before our present
Game and Fisheries Department
t^as instituted in 1905 but even
before there were any regulatory
< c administrative bodies there
were game laws enacted by the
Legislature. I mentioned the
earliest of the?e last week, the
Act of 18:il.
In 1839 another Act was pas-
sed which was even more com-
prehensive for it provided that no
person "shall hunt or shoot, or go
out with a gun in quest of any
deer or other wild animal or wild
fowl on the Lord's Day (common-
ly called Sunday; within this
Province." The season for deer
was changed to open August 1st
and close February 1st. "Wild
turkey, prairi* hen or grouse;
commonly called pheasant or
partridge; or any quail or wood-
cock," could legally be taken
from September 1st to March 1st.
Open and Clo.ed Son*
When the Statutes of Upper
Canada were consolidated in
1859 there were few changes.
The duck season extended from
August 1st to April 15th, eight
and one half months of shooting
which should have satisfied most
paopl*. Even at that time they
bad. trouble with wolves and the
Act mentions a bounty of six
dollars.
In 1868, the Province of On-
tario revised the gam* laws, cut-
ting down th open season to
more reasonable length but even
this did not prevent depletion. By
1890, the anxiety among thinking
people culminated in the appoint-
ment of a Commission to investi-
gate condltioni and submit rs-
*V mmendations.
One can find in libraries the
Id leather bound volume that
contains the report of the Com-
mission of 1890. It is well worth
reading, particularly for ths pic-
ture It gives of conditions fifty
years ago. It was a sweeping
fend outspoken indictment of ths
Tenons abuses that hampered ths
conservation of our gams and
til*. It had considerable effect
for shortly afterwards the Legis-
lature set up a Board of Fish
Vid Gam* Commissioners under
the nominal jurisdiction of th*
(Commissioner of Crown Lands.
This Commission administered tht
mid lift for nearly fourteen
Cm when It was dissolved and
prestnt Department of Gam*
ud Fisheries was set up In its
place.

Willows Have
Turkish Origin
Britain and America have a
pary strong bond with Turkey,
tor every weeping willow gracing
ur river banks owes iU origin to
a single cutting brought from
tfcat country. This is how it hap-
pened. At the beginning of th*
18th century a large basket of

U. S. S. R. PROMISES AID
IF TURKEY IS ATTACKED
---- column ----
Last week M spring opened th
door on what might well be th
decislv* phase of the conflict be-
tween Britalm and Germany, tu
Battle at Britain out of which has
frown the Battle of the Atlantic
was etUl the main engagement of
the war. But events In the Medi-
terranean basin were receiving
much more of the world's attention.
There, the British conquest of It-
aly's African Km;. ire, all but com-
plete, was beginning to be chal-
lenged by large forces of German
mechanized troop* In western Lib-
ya; and the Battle of the Balkans
was fast approaching the "shoot-
ing" stage.
Yugoslav Crisis
The capitulation to tha Axis of
Yugoslavia's head men precipitat-
ed a number of new crises: in
Yugoslavia Itself, where open re-
volt and 'civil war threatened; In
Greece, where the Allle<l-Grek
military command, had swiftly to
revise their plan of defence to em-
embrace a much wider front; In
Turkey, where the country's lead-
ens saw her Independence menaced
from ret another angle; and in
Russia, where German penetration
of the Balkans had long been view-
ed with growing auilety.
Russia Assures Neutrality
The Soviet Union reacted to thU
situation by reaffirming friendship
wttlh Turkey and assuring Russian
---- column ----
neutrality should Turkey resist a
Gtorman attack on herself. Ths
agreement did not promise neutral-
ity If Turkey should strike at Ger-
man/ In the event of a Nazi move
against Greece. On ths contrary It
stated that "in the event that Tur-
key should be tha object of aggree-
a Ion and she found herself obliged
to enter war for the defence of net
territory, Turkey could then. In
conformity with the non-aggression
pact existing between herself and
the r. S. S. ft , rely on the full
comprehension and neutrality of
the U. S. S. R."
Tuls was sensational news. The
entering Into of tills pact with Tur-
key constituted the first concrete
step the Soviet Union had taken to
Influence the course of ths war
sine* the German-Russian agree-
ment of August, 1939. This latest
act barred further Nazi penetra-
tion southeast, along the TJ. S. 3.
R's western bordera. (It also was
reliably confirmed that Russia had
halted shipment of all supplies of
oil to Germany since March 1).

ably are moving from Russia to
Turkey, and It would be logical for
the movement to develop gradually
to a large scale . . . Russia Is mov-
ing her troops and warships west-
ward as quietly as possible, but
perhaps with little idea of offens-
ive action . . . It remains to be seen
whether Stalin will neglect his op-
portunities until Hitler 1s ready to
strike. His military advisers should
tell him the truth that until Ger-
any has fought it out with Britain,
Hitler won't have sufficient gaso-
line and grease to permit large
mechanized forces to drive far into
Russia and that Hitler really to
staging a gigantic bluff to keep
Russia quiet. The Russian armies
possess a vast nu-- n rical superior-
ity over the German armies and it
Is Impossible for the German forces
to guard every vital point that the
Russians could menace. The Sov-
iet air force could work havoc to
German cities; Russian cities are
so remote they would be compar-
atively fre from attack. Were Rus-
sia to make common cause with
the Greek, British and Turkish
armies, the defeat of Germany
within a year would be a near
certainty."
Whatever purposes were behind
th* Soviet pledge of aid to Tur-
key, they portended ill for Nazi
Germany. Even the U. 8. State De-
partment heartily applauded Rus-
sia's attitude.
"Bridge of Ships"
President Roosevelt's biggest
headache, once the first financial
appropriations under the Lease-
Lend bill had been approved by
the Senate, appeared last week to
be: how the U. S. was to assure
delivery of American aid to Bri-
tain. Everything obviously depend-
ed upou maintenance of the
"bridge of ships" across the At-
lantic. (Hearteniogly enough last's
week's British shipping losses were
away down). A move to lend more
destroyers to Britain was expected
hourly; and large-scale plans were
being laid for the repair of Bri-
tain's naval and merchant shipping
in United States yards. Use of
American warships in British con-
voys was contemplated, but not
plnnned until a more critical stage
of U. S.-Gorman relations should
i>.< reached.
Very encouraging news for Bri-
tain came out of the U. S. last
weeik with the report, reliably eon-
firmed, that 15,000 bomber and
fighter planes would be ready to go
across the ocean to join the war
by. July. By the end of 1941, It
was said, American production
would bring Britain's air fighting
strength up level with Germany's.
Japan Reconnoitre*
Japanese Foreign Minister Mat-
suoka's sojourns in Moscow, Rome,
Berlin, were last week not yet com-
plete. His parleye with tha Axis
rlilofd were the subject of much
speculation since no Information
about them was forthcoming
but it was generally thought that
Mr. Matsuoka had rome to Europe
to sen for himself whether the
Axis partners were in position to
---- column ----
make good their claim that they
can ' nullify American aid for Bri-
tain and knock the latter out. His
findings would without doubt
strongly ' r luenc the decision of
his government as to whether Ja-
pan is to weave a tortuous course
of non-belligerency or throw cau-
tion to the -winds and join In the
attack on the Anglo-Allies. One of
Japan's greatest fears of course li
that Soviet Russia might attack
her In the north (by air, sea and
Land) when she's busy In the south,
and what the Japanese government
desires perhaps above all else at
the moment Is a Russo-Japanese
non^aggression pact.

$2,600,000,000 This Year
Canada will spend $2,600,000,0
over the next twelve months on
her own war effort and financial
aid to Britain $850,000,000 more
than was estimated late In Feb-
ruary Premier King told Parlia-
ment last week. The Prime Min-
ister declared that this sum, to be
spent In a mighty drive of men,
money and materials, represented
44 per cent of the whole national
income of Canada.
On a comparative basis, the
premier estimated, this financial
assistance to Britain for Canadian
puchases would equal an expendi-
ture of |15 billions by the United
States more than twice the Wash-
ington appropriation for land-lease
purposes.
Following Premier King, Fin-
ance Minister Ilsley announced
federal taxes of $1,000,000,000 for
the fiscal year beginning April 1
which represented an additional
$100,000,000 in revenue to b*
.io:ight from Canadians by the Do-
minion government next year. A
billion dollars, he said, would bar*
to b* borrowed next year to cover
direct war outlay and non-war ex-
penditures including financing of
the new federal wheat policy.
Unpopular Wheat Policy
Western members of the House
of Commons last week were urg-
ing that they be given an opportun-
ity to debate the government's new
wheat policy which provides: a
limit of 230,000,000 bushels to
Wheat Board purchases of the 1941
crop; a continuation of th* pre-
sent 70c a bushel minimum price;
basing of delivery quotas on 05
per cent of the 1940 wheat acreage
(which means acreage reduction);
and payment of bonuses for sum-
merfallowing and seeding to coarse
grains and grasses. Agriculture
Minister MacMlllan of Alberta had
Issued a statement saying that this
policy was "highly unsatisfactory
and Inadequate" and that It would
be Impossible of acceptance by the
Western wheat farmers unless
drastic modifications were made.
Fanners of the prairie provinces,
ha contended, should be placed la
a position of equality with other
classes of Canadian citizens In tha
war effort and not forced to live
on an "Income on the verge of
poverty."

CAST OF CHARACTERS
MONNIE MILES her mania for
fast driving almost wrecked her
romance.
LARRY.. COLLINS newspaper
reporter, hunting the murderers of
his brother.
MIKE BENTLEY wealthy
rancher, knew too much about
uto accidents.
*
LAST WEEK: Monnie sees
Larry, denounces him as thief.
Then she tells Bentley that
Larry's brother was killed on the
curve, that he has been investi-
gating the accident, spying on her.
Larry tries to tell her that Bent-
ley is smuggling narcotics. She
refuses to believe him. Later she
promises to marry Bentley if he
will turn Larry over to the sheriff.
Bentley agrees, but makes his own
plans.
---- column ----
CHAPTER XIV
Worrying about what Bentley
was planning to do with him didn't
keep Larry from enjoying the din-
ner his guards brought. He was
Jnst finishing the pie when the
rancher walked itt.
"Good cook you hire here. Beut-
l*y," Larry eommcntwl. "You al-
ways eat this well?"
Bentley laughed. ''No, this is
peclal for you. The condemned
man ate a hearty dinner and all
that. Glad you liked it, though. It's
your last meal."
Larry rolled a cigaret, eyeing
Bentley speculatively. "You're a
nice guy, Mike. I'll bet you used
to drown kittens, stick pins in
tugs, and that sort of thing when
you were a kid. You enjoy seeing
people squirm so much. Do your
worst, Bentley. I'm not squirming
for you."
"I KUIed Him!"
"You will before we get throush
with you." The man's innate cruel-
ty reflected itself in his face. "You
came here asking for trouble, just
Mke your brother. We caught him
snooping. We caught you. It's not
healthy to know too much a-bout
Hike Bentley. You're finding that
out. Your brother discovered the
same thing."
"You admit you killed him?"
"Sure, I did. And I did a swell
Job of It. Unidentified drunk killed
en curve. Everybody forgot about
him as soon as the inq/uest was
ver. No one will bother much
About a dead cattle thief either."
"There are a fe>w who might be
interested," Larry suggested.
"They might even start Investi-
gating when I don't come back.
Ever think about that?"
"Let 'em Investigate all they
want to, they won't find a thing."
Bentley was aggravatlugly confi-
dent. "Might slow things up for a
Mt cancel a few deliveries, but
nothing more than that. You're
not so important as all that, Col-
Hns."
Well Worked Out
"You must have It pretty well
worked out."
"I always have things 'pretty
w*H worked out.' That's why I
never fail. Here's what's going to
happen to you at least, this Is
w*at everyone will think happen-
ed to you.
"In a couple of hours, you're go-
tag to knock me out, while I sit
ere talking to you"
"I'll enjoy that part of it," Lar-
y Interrupted.
"That's only in the story, you
don't actually have the pleasure
of slugging me. One of the boys
will take care of it. ... You take
y gun, throw down on the boys
and get away. .Tust outside you
find my oar . . . you jump In it,
ra*e to town. You'll meet the sher-
Mf at Dead Man's Curve. ... If ha
drives too fast you may take him
tat.o the canyon with you. . . I won't
mind. . . . The car catches fire. . .
You shoot yourself with my gun,

death or be taken to prison. You'll

make a few headlines, but we prob-
ably won't bother to hold much of
an inquest."
"Just like Hugh," Lawy com-
mented. "Aren't you afraid some-
one will start thinking these ac-
cidents on the curve are occurring
too frequently?"
"What if someone does? What
can he prove? The sheriff will be
the only witness. This setup is per-
fect. It worked for your brother.
It'll do for yon."
* * *
Bill and two more of Beutle-y's
men came for Larry about 9.30.
They tied his hands behind him,
then hustled him upstairs and out
into Bentley's car. He was pushed
into the front seat beside the ranch-
er. He noticed a man riding a
horse down the highway, leading
a second saddled horse.
"He goes down into the canyon
to fire the shot when you kill your-
self." Bentley explained. "He'll
stay close to the curve, but well
out of your way. From the high-
way it sounds like. Hie shot comes
from the burning car.' 1
Larry was silent. He watched
another man put a gasoline can in
Bentley's car. Bill climbed in the
back, fondling a machine gun.
Bentley drove out to the highway.
A second car followed.
"Nice car you'vo got here,"
Larry said. "Don't you mind los-
ing it?"
She's Set the Day
Bentley was amused. "It's in-
sured. I'll need a now one any-
way, when Monnie and I get mar-
ried. You knew we were going to
be married, didn't you? Monuie
set the day, September in, thig aft-
ernoon. She went on In to town
to talk io her bridesmaids. 'TOO
bad. Collins. You should have stay-
ed in New York."
1,/arry did not answer After this
afternoon, nothing surprised him.
He didn't mind Monnie believing
he was a thief, she might have
been angry, but to tell Bentley
about Hugh. That was more than
he could stand. He had trusted
her loved her.
The car stopped, but Bentley
left the motor running. Larry saw
the curve a hundred yards beyond.
Bentley got out, called to the men
In the other car.
"Turn around and keep the mo-
tor running. This will go off just,
like the other one. Joe you get
up on the hill. Flash your light
whe-n you see a car coming up,
then duck back through the pas-
ture. I'll have someone pick you
up.
"You, Bill, steer the car. Be sure
that fuse Is fastened tight and
watch out you don't blow up when
you light it. Jump off when the
car gets rolling good and go down
into the myon. Tony'll have your
horse down there.
"I'll go back to the house with
Shultz and let him put a bump on
my head. But I'll take fare of Col-
lins first."
Caught Off Guard
He came back to harry, cut the
ropes that bound his wrists. "Move
over under the wheel, Collins,
You're driving from here on."-
Larry rubbed his wrists to re-
store the circulation. When he fail-
ed to obey Bentley's command, Bill
prodded him In the back with the
machine gun. "You heard him,
buddy. Move over."
Bentley ha.nded his automatic
to Bill. "I'll take that tommy-gun
up to the other car. Shoot him In
the head if he tries anything."
He was back, in a minute, "All
right, Bill. Spill some gasoline back
there; wind the fuse up over the
door." He took his gun from Bill,
got into the seat beside Larry.
"Any last words, Collins?"
"You certainly have this down
to a system."
"We practiced on your brother.
When Joe flashes his light, I'll
shoot you. let off the brake and
put the car in gear. '1 jerk the hand
throttle open as I jum.p out. Bill
lights the fuse, steers you almost
to the curve. Then"
"What about Monnie? She knows
why I'm here, knows I've been try-
lug to prove you're smuggling nar-
cotics. She suspects there was
something wrong about the firs!;
accident, here. She'll talk." Larry
was stalling.
"No she won't. We'll take care
of Monnie. 1-f she starts any trou-

Baby's First Pair I* Very
Important, Health Specialist
Says Plenty of Space For
.Growth Necessary
---- column ----
"Baby's first pair of shoes is
one of the most- important pairs
in a lifetime," said an official
of the Health League of Canada
in a recent address. "The one
thing that doesn't matter about
them is style."
Square-toed shoes with straight
inner edges are what the child
needs, with plenty of space to al-
low for quick growing, said the
speaker. He pointed out that
the infant bones and muscles (
cannot stand the strain of long
standing, and are likely to "flat-
ten out" if the child is encour-
aged to stand or walk too much.
In adult life, he declared, care
of the feet was of the. first im-
portance to general comfort and
health. In this connection he
deplored the tendencey of wom-
en's footwear to sacrifice com-
fort for style. Usually, he de-
clared, women's shoes are too
narrow, their soles are too thin,
the toes too pointed and the
heels outrageously high.
All shoes, 'whether for men or.
women, should be well-fitting
but not too tight, he asserted.
The wearer's toes should not
touch the end of the shoe, but
should have freedom of move-
ment. He recommended rubber
heels to -absorb the shock in
walking.

NAVY VERY POPULAR
Navy is lor greater popularity
than ever before. Always a fav-
orite, ii will lead the spring fash-
ion parade. It is shown in
suits and coats and sheer dresses,
dressed -,ip with crisp, lingerie
touches. While red is a natural
complement with navy in trims,
edging, lining and in bright red
blouses. Navy sportswear Is a new
"dark horse" and with white braid
and brass buttons on a slacks out-
fit or suit, navy has a real nautical
flavor. Another bine that is in the

fluence and a keen interest in av-
iation.

Women Can Help
Nation To Health
It Should Be A National Ob-
jective, Says Director of
Health League of Canada
Women Needed in Parlia-
ment
---- column ----
If health were to be a national
objective in Canada the doctors
needed the help of women, Dr.
Gordon Bates, director of the
Health League of Canada, said in
an address before the Local
Council of Women in Toronto.
"In all our municipal affairs
it takes men and women together
to build a world that makes
sense," lie said. "Men cannot do
it alone. We need more women
to give thought to the things that
are worthwhile."
UKSOLUTIONS NOT ENOUGH
Groups of women passing reso-
lutions was "not enough." Wo-
men by themselves were no more
capable of settling the affairs of
the world than were men, and
women in such groups in the long
run had little political influence.
"We need women in our poli-
tical assemblies and in all of our
serious national deliberations,"
he said, "We need women in
parliament; we need women to
work with men to decide the fu-
ture of mankind."

Tuesday, Mr. and Mrs. Alex Holley

ersary, at their home in Sault Ste.
Marie, Out.
At 12.30 the immediate family sat

tifully decorated with daffodils and
other spring flowers.
.Following the dinner a poem was
read, which had been written by a
friend of the family, in Chicaga.
During the afternoon and evening
Mr. and Mrs. Holley were at home
to their friends, at the home of the

thcart Street. A (host of friend?
called to congratulate them.
The rooms were beautifully decor-
ated with gold and white wedding
bells ami <* re: fler wedding cake
centered the tea table.
Later in the evening, music and
dancing was enjoyed by the honoured
couple, their children and grand-
children.
Many telegrams and congratula-
tions were received, one of them

ARMERS SHOULD PLAN
TO HELP EACH OTHER
-V |j
There is an old saying that "the
<>rd helps those who help them-
elves," and it would be equally true
o say that "the Lord helps those who
elp each other." Many Ontatrio
armers will literally have to help
ach o f her this year if they cannot
et sufficient help for their own in-
ividual farms.
There will be, from all accounts, a
umber of "one-man" farms this
ear with a consequent reduction in
rop acres as a result of the farm
elp situation, unless farmers co-
perate in the old-fashioned neigh-
>orly manner of changing "works"
ith each other. It will be recalled
bat during severe farm labor short-
's in the last war, neighbors
worked back and forth helping each
ther with seeding and harvest
perations.
A return to this method of opera-
ion will mean that farmers will b<
ble to plant and harvest more crop
cres and feed more hogs and cattlt
han they would by attempting tc
un the farm alone.

TO LOSE LICENSES ON
RECKLESS DRIVING CHARGE
Leopold Macaulay's 'bill to provide
for automatic suspension of drivers'
licenses upon conviction for reckless
or dangerous driving, was approved
with one change by the municipal law
committee of the Ontario Legislat-
ure. Mr. Mccaulay, Conserva-
Member for York South and a for-
mer Minister of Highways, agreed
to delete the term "careless driving"
from the bill after several members
objected that police used this charge
under the criminal code for many
minor offences.
The Highways Traffic Act pro-
vides for suspension of drivers' licen-
se where there is culpability in an
accident causing damage of $25 or
more. The amendment approved by
the committee provides for suspen-
sion where reckless or dangerous
driving convictions are made under
the criminal code, even though there
had been no accident. Restoration o*
license is dependent on filling of
proof of finincial responsibility.
J. P. Bickwell, registrar of motor
vehicles, said that in 10 years there
had been 43,200 licenses suspended
in Ontario following convictions.

Ski Guests Valuable
To apeak of gold in the Lauren tine
Mountains is, of course, poetic
license, nevertheless there is a sub-
stantial stake in the hills which has
been paying dividends for years and
promises to continue. It comes in
the cash expenditures of the Canad-
ian and United States visitors who
spend winter vacations in the mount-
ain country. The season now ending
has been an excellent one for visitors
to such places as St. Sauveur, most
popular of all Lauren tine ski centres;
Morin Heights and other communities
served by the Canadian National
Railways. Years ago residents of
these mountain communities had a
busy summer season then went into
retirement for the winter season.
Now the activity of ski enthusiasts
and the enterprise of the railways in
operating ski specials has establish-
ed two seasons and it would be dif-
ficult to tell which is the most popu-
lar.

Priceville Old Boys
Held Toronto Dance
---- column ----
Carrying out their program of dir-
ecting as much of their efforts as pos-
sible to aid The Evening Telegram
British War Victims' Fund, Price-
ville Old Boys' and Girls' Associat-
ion decided to forego their annual
fowl supper this year and substitute
a euchre and dance for the cause.
The event, held in Parkdale Assemb-
ley Hall, added $25 to the fund.
It was this organization's second
function for the fund, and 300 per-
sons attended. Fifty motored down
from Priceville to lend support.
Prizes for the euchre and special
dance lumbers were war savings
stamps.
Hon. Farquhar Oliver, a native *t
Priceville, welcomed 50 airmen and
soldiers, who were guests of honour,
and Controller W. J. Wadsworth, a
native of Ceylon, near Priceville, also
spoke.
The committee in charge, which
plans to contribute as much to the
fund as possible from all future
events, includes: Mrs. Jessie M. Koer-
itz, president; Miss M. McKinnon,
first vice president; Alex McEachren,
second vice president; Mr. and Mrs.
Harry Pedlar, J. A. Knox, and Mrs.

---- column ----
We notice in the County of Simcoe
a movement is on foot for a county
Old Home Week to ring back resi
dents of the United States and others
for a visit to the old home community
some time around July 1st, in an ef-
fort to boost the number of tourists
in Ontario, the number of which fell
greatly last year from one cause 01
another. The movement is a worthy
one and we were wondering if the
Flesherton Old Boys' and Girls' Assoc-
iation, local branch, would take this
matter up a nd sponsor it. There does
not need to be any great celebration
as we had twelve years ago, but a
quiet home-coming without fuss. Let
us add our bit in an effort to bring
back the tourist trade to Ontario and
have greater prosperity for all of us.

The Functions of The Pres*
Commencing this week it is our itt-
tention to feature an editorial eacb
week for nine weeks, outlining the
functions of the press in a democratic
community and its relationship to the
various phases of community life.
There is considerable ignorance as to
the position and prerogatives of the
press in the area it serves. This lack
of knowledge is almost entirely the
fault of the press itself, because it
has neglected the important duty of
making iti roaders conversant with
the fundamental principles involved
in the publication of a community
newspaper. The series seeks to make
amends for the omissions of the past,
and to present in simple language .n
explanation of the main relationships
between the newspaper, its readers,
its community, and its associates with
organizations, business groups and
institutions within the realm it seeks
to serve.
The nine phases to be discussed arer
The Freedom of the Press, The Press
and the Advertiser, The Press and
Gevernments, The Press and Propa-
ganda, The Functions of an Editor.
The Functions of a Reporter, The
Press and Local History, and The
Guarantee of Freedom. We sincere-
ly hope that our readers will care-
fully study and digest the series, be-
cause we believe that it will give
them a new understanding of iheie
local newspaper, an3 the historical
purpose of its mission in the commun-
ity.

---- column ----
"Hot Cross Buns! Hot Croat
Buns!
One-a-penny, two^a-penny, Hot
Cross Buns!
If ye have no daughters, give
thorn to your sons."
So sang the bilker's boy as he
pushed his flat two-wheeled cart
laden with Buster confections
through the narrow streets of old
Ldndon; and to most people even
yet Good Friday would not be com-
plete without the Hot-Crosi Huns
to adorn the breakfast table.
MARKED WITH A CROSS
Many are the stories that have
li'XiU passed down through the
;iKa in connection with this bun.
It at said that the inhabitants of
auclent Egypt and Greece offered
sacred cakes to the Moon Goddeaa,
marking t'n-m with a cross to In-
dicate the four quarters ot the
moon. Then at a later date, the
Saxons ate a similar bread, which
they called "bouus," or buni. Theae
too, were marked with a cross, in
honor of their goddess of light.
In a number of European coun-
tries the Hot Cross Bun Is regard-
fMl as a good-luck symbol, and it in
believed that one should be kpt
until the following Good Friday to
insure the best of fortune through-
out Uie year. In one part of Eng-
land it U still believed that Hot
Cross Buns hung In the chimney
corner on Good Friday will guar-
antee good bread to the housewife
for the following 12 months. An-
other tradition in connection with
the Good Friday buns and bread
in that if ki>pt through the year a
few rnimbs soaked In water would
work a cure for any ailment.

With birch leaves' tender green.

And ah, the ruffles now disclosed,
Now demurely hid,
Of .cherry-petaled pantalettes;
The white starched petticoats

"Don't shoot, Collins. Everything

for saving your life." Larry .squeez-

released her.
"She figured Be-iiUey perfectly,"
Harris went on. "Bentley got away

self, and she wanted him to keep
remembering Hugh"
"That's why I had to tell him
you were Hugh'-, brother," Monnie

to hate you."
"Miss Miles called us as -mm as
she sot away from Bentley's" the
highway patrol chief continued.
"We knew we'd never get you alive
If we rushed the house. So after
Miss Miles explained more about
the other accident, \ve decided
Be-utlpy would try the same thing
over again. When he called the
sheriff, were were sure of it. We
came up here, hid down in the
canyon.
"Luckily, I sent wnt of the boys
up on the hill to watch for Benl-
ley. He took care of Joe. We heard
everything Bentley said.
"It was getting you out safely
that worried us. We knew you
weren't tied, but we were afraid
that Bentley would shoot you the
minute he suspected anything.
When he started talking about
Miss Miles, I told her to shout, and
let you take your own chances.
She was game enough to do It. It
worked out swell."
"Monnie's voice did It," Larry
said. "It was unexpected and It
threw Bentley off guard. That gave
me time to clip him, and to push
that giui away."
"And the others had their hands

have been a scmp there. I sent,

NEW CURING PROCESS MAKES
EASTER HAM MORE TENDER
(Cuts Cooking Time, Too)
"by
MARY CLAIRE THOMPSON
---- column ----
Thousands of cords of oak and hard maple have sent iheir pungent
smoke seeping into the Easter ha ins that now wait to join with Easter
eggs on your feast day table.
Ham, baked, broiled or boiled has always been a Canadian favorite
Decause of its flavor and juiciness. Today, however, a now process of
curing and smoking makes hams extra tender, juicy and sweet. What's
more, the flavor is the same right through the ham from the outside
layer of fat to tha bone. This new curing and smoking; process, called
tenderizing, not only gives them a richer flavor, but makes the meat
more tender as well.
Whole Ham, Baked
Do not be afraid to buy a whole ham for Easter, but be sure to
select one that has had the new tenderizing process. Ask for a Tender-
sweet ham. You will appreciate the difference from the old style hams
just as soon as you start to cook it. No soaking, no parboiling is neces-
sary before putting this ham in the oven. Just give it a long, slow bak-
ing, then about 15 minutes before serving, remove the rind and spread
the fat with a brown sugar glaze. Serve the whole ham baked, for the
special Easter Sunday dinner. Then during the week following, slice
some of the left-over piece for quk-k broiling. For another meal, use
chopped cooked ham in croquettes, a meat loaf or as a sandwich filling
and finally draw out every last bit of goodness from the ham by sim-
mering the bone for soup. What's pea soup without a ham bone? You
will find one of these Tendersweel hams a thrifty meat buy because
every scrap can be used.
Fruit* Are Affinities
It is not surprising that juicy hams and fruits are the latest in
food affinities. They are lovely to look at and delicious to eat. Broiled
pears, sauteed pineapple, spiced peaches, pickled cherries and raisin
sauce are ham accompaniments of epicurean acclaim.
Here is a suggested menu for an Easter dinner made festive because
it features Tendersweet ham. The simple directions for cooking tha
ham are given as well as the recipe for Raisin Sauce, an ideal accom-
paniment.

Summer Hats Are
Revolutionized

No department in men's dress
has seen such a revolution as his
summer headwear. When con-

joyment and not too much com-
fort in the change to straw hats.
This past year brought the discov-

erable new featherweight, mesh-
woven tropical hats, in a great
variety of native weaves and pat-
terns which are thoroughly in-
bucd with the color and comfort
of modern porous, hot- weather
clothes. In all, a menu of some-
thing like 300 new summer hats,
each with its special quality of
appearance and comfort, hai been
kdded for men's choice.
With Colored Btnds
These new hats are trimmed
with bands to express every man's
fancy and harmonize with all types
of costumes plain colors, bright

choose to make of herself. One

frills or a portrait in finery.
A COLORFUL EASTER
Jt certainly is going to be a lively
spring as gay and colorful as styl-
ists can contrive, which is pretty
gay and colorful. Even shoes will
step lively in colors headed by
red, which seems a bit revolution-
ary but such is the case. No one
expects, or seems to want, sen-
Bible shoes. Like lints, the sillier
they are the harder we fall for
them, but they art* not all open-
toed and many have closed heels,
which is somt'tliing. The pyramid-
ed heel is smart and hints of dan-
ger, although it really isn't as
tricky as it appears.
If you don't happen to care for
novelty shoes, it's too bad, since
all sorts of unusual trimmings arc
used, ranging from nail heads, dec-
ok-iitive brass ones, to match box
affairs that sprout where bows and
Imokles once grew. Plniiento and
ht-nrt-beat red are two of the fav-
ored shoe colors.

This is ITOW to launder spreads.-
Make some wood, soapy water
and plunge the fabric in, use a
squeezing- action to expel the dirt,
but don't rub or wring the mater-
ial. Rinse until the final rinsing
water is clear (two or three in-
stalments of water as a rule) and
then hang outside until nearly,
dry.. When the candlewick is al-
most dry, shake it as hard as you
can to brinff up the wicky part
and when it is absolutely dry heat
the whole surface with a li^ht
brush, a sort of dabbing, whisk-
ing action.

vious to any intelligent person is syn
onoumous with the freedom which is
democracy.
There have always been those, who
often for reasons of personal aggran
disement or lust for power, woulc
rob the press of this precious jewe
in the crown of liberty. There have
been others who cry out for persona
freedom of expression, but wh
would deny this right to the press
It has been claimed that this freed
om can become license, but this i
one of those half-truths which un
thinking people are likely to accep
at its face value.
Actually the press enjoys a- free
do which gives it no privilege abovi
the individual. It must conform to
the laws of the state. Its freedom
is bound by the lows of libel and slan
der. It certainly offers no greater
opportunity for defaming any per
son of institution, than does the in
herent right of free speech with
which every person is endowed as a
birthright. Abraham Lincoln in u de
bate on the constitution once said
"The liberty of the press is the ty
rant's scourage; it is the true frienc
and the supermost suporter of civi
liberty." The principal of freedom
of the press, as it exists today, is th
result of a long and bitter struggl
ictween those who believe in civi
rights and constituted authority, and
those who feared the exercise of these
rights.
It is significant that the first
amendment to the Bill of Rights oi
the Amercan Constitution, adopted in
1791, is one that relates to the free-
dom of the press. It reads: "Con-
gress shall make no law respecting
the establishment of religion, or the
prohibition of the free exercise
thereof; or abridging the freedom oi
speech, or of the press; or the right
of the people peaceably to assemble
and to petition the government for a
redress of grievances." The very
wording of this amendment places
frecdnm of the press on the same lev-
el, and of equal import with freedon
of religion, of speech and of assembly.
A Rhode Island State provisio n
sums up the question of a free press
in a few words when it says:"The

the security and freedom of the state,
any person may publish his sentimen^ 1 "
on any subject, being responsible for
the abuse of that liberty, and in all
trials for libel, both civil and crimin-
al, the truth unless published from
malicious motives, shall be sufficient
defence to the person charged."
Many other democratic countries have
passed similar legislation, because
from a wide study of the dangers of
a subservient press, they have learn
ed that free press is the best assur-
ance of a free country.
To be fully comprehended, the free-
dom of the press must be accepted
by democratic peoples as a typical
example of the privileges they en-
joy as individuals in a democratic
state. To' abolish th freedom of
the press, is to invite the abolition
of all freedom for the individual.

NOT SO MUCH DICTATION
Since its formation in 1930. the On-
tario Securities Commission has done
a good deal for mining and industrial
affairs through the control of specu-
lation. But in the past, its restric-
tions have had dictatorial force, in
that no order of the Commission was
subject to review in any way in the
courts. This session an amendment to
the Securities Act granting right o'
appeal from decisions of the Commis-
sion was introduced in the Legislature
by Attorney General Conant. It is
proposed that a Board of Review, con-
sisting of the Master of the Supreme
Court, the judge of the Mining Courf
and the Deputy Minister of Mines, be
set up, to which any "direction, de-
cision, order or ruling regarding a
license or affecting the right of any
person to trade in securities'* may be
appealed and that final resort may
be made by the appellant to the (tourt
of Appeal for Ontario. On the prin-
ciple that citizen should be permitted
to have his rights determined by the
courts, whenever it is at all possible
and whenever it does not too drast-
ically delay or impair administration

to note the possibility of an entire
reversal of the basic "power at cost"
principle o f the Hydro-Electric Sys-
tem, as a result of a request for the
appointment of a select committee of
the Ontario Legislature to study the
question of establishing a flat rate
for Hydro power across the province.
Under the present system, rates are
governed by the distance of a muni-
cipality from the source of generation
and the density of the area served.
The establishment of a universal
rate would undoiitodlv entail nn ii-
'"". ureas.
l-rti.uiariy in the major citiees. On
the other hand the reduction of rural
rates thus affected would in all prob-
ability increase the number of power
users on farms and go far towards
encouraging industries to locate in
the smaller centres, causing n decen-
trnilizn.tion of Industry which in the
long run might prove beneficial to
the Province. The fact that the St.
I.invn nrc project gives promise of
1 i-cs.-rvi's of powor makes a pol-
'"' '-liiinge more feasible.

THE TRIUMPHAL ENTRY
Luke 19: 28-40
GOLDEN TEXT Ble*ed . he
tlut comth in the name of the
Lord. Mark 11:9.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time Sunday, April 2, A.D.
30.
Place The Western slope of
the Mount of Olivet;, opposite the
erty of Jerusalem.
Lt Journey to Jerusalem
Luke 19:28. "And when he had
thus spoken, he went before, go-
ing up to Jerusalem. 29. And it
came to pass, when he drew- nigh
unto Bethphage and Bethany, at
the mount that ia called Olivet,
he sent two of the disciples." The
order of events was probably ai
follows: Jesus left Jericho on the
morning and reached Bethany on
the evening of Friday. There He
remained with the Twelve, our
Lord doubtless being with Lazar-
us and his sisters. The next day,
Sabbath (our Saturday), He spent
in quiet at Bethany. In the eve-
ning He was at supper in the
house of Simon the leper, liii
disciples, with Lazarus and his
istn>. being present. At this
feast he was anointed by Mary.
During the afternoon, Jews of
JIM limit m, who had heard from
pilgrim?- of His arrival, went out
to see Him and Lazarus. This
coming to the ears of the chief
priests, a meeting of the council
was held at night to consider the
propriety of putting both Jesus
and Lazarus to death. On the
morrow (Sunday) the narrative of
Luke resumes.
To Fetch a Colt
30. "Saying, Go your way into
the village over against you; in
which as ye enter ye shall find a
colt tied, whereon no man ever
yet sat: loose him, and bring him.
31. And if any one aik you, Why
d.. ye loose him? thus shall ye
say, The Lord hath need of him."
The sending of the two disciples
proves the deliberate intention of
Jesus to give a certain solemnity
to this scene. He wished to show
Himself at least once as King
Messiah to His people. He knew
that in any case death awaited
Him in the capital. 32. "And
they that were sent went away,
and found even as he had aid
unto them. 33. And as they were
loosing the colt, the owners there-
of isid unto them, Why loose ye
the colt? 34. And they said, The
Lord hath need of him." The
disciples' faith was splendid in the
hour of miracle, when in the name
f Jesus they were might; but it
waw not less splendid in this un-
noticed hour, when they were sent
to fetch the ass from Bethphage.
Acclamation of the Multitude
36. "And they brought him to
Jesus: and they threw their gar-
ments upon the colt, and set
Jesus thereon. 36. And as they
went they spread their garments
fa the way." The companies of
pilgrims from the_vnrious towns
nd districts of Palestine, or from
Jewish settlements abroad, were
wont to make public entries into
the city before the great feasts.
fiin h sn entry Jesus would make,
Himself its central .figure. It
would* be a day of joy and glad-
new to Him and to others, as when
a king enters on his kingdom. He
would no longer check the popular
feeling in His favour. His last
entry to the Holy City, at the
Feast of Tabernacles, had been
designedly secret; but this should
be in exact contrast, for He knew
that His kingly work was now
ver, so far as it could, for the
time, be completed, and the en-
thusiasm of willing consecration
to death, as His path to eternal
triumph, filled Him with a serene
and victorious joy. Misconception
f His claim would be impossible,
In honest minds, in the face of
facts. Israel should now see Him
<ome openly, as 'He, who alone, if
they frankly accepted Him, could
eewc them, by leading them as a
ation, to true repentance and a
higher spiritual life. He knew be-
forehand, that they would not;
fcnt His work could not be said to
i completely ended till He had
sjiven them and their leaders this
Jaet public opportunity.
Hitherto He had entered the
Holy City on foot; this day, like
David ami the Judges of Israel,
he would ride nn an ass, the an-
cient symbol of Jewish royalty.
HI. ..<.! ! the Kins;''
37. "And as he was now draw-
ing nigh, even at the descent of
the mount of Olives, the whole
multitude of the disciples began
to rejoice and praise God with a
loud voice for all the mighty
works which they had socn; 38.
Saying, Blessed is the King that
eometh in the name of the Lord:
peace in heaven, and glory in the

cognized Jesus as the Messiah. The
Psalms from which they come
were nung at the Passover and at
the Feast of Tabernacles, and
hence were familiar to the people.

Jesus and His disciples were un-
der the ban of the hierarchy. The
Sanhedrin had issued a decree
that, if anyone knew where He
was, he should give information,
that they might arrest Him. And
yet, here are His disciples bring-
ing Him in triumph into Jerusa-
lem and the populace enthusiasti-
cally joining with them. The
Pharisees were horrified. Never
before had they witnessed such a
demonstration. They saw no way
to stop what to their ears was
blasphemous) praise of Jesus, ex-
cept an appeal to Jgus himself
that he rebuke this enthusiasm.
His answer stunned them.

ARTICLE No. 6
---- column ----
Shrubs, trees and perennial
flowers have a fearful habit of
taking up more room when grown
up than the average gardener an-
ticipated. Generally speaking,
when setting out such thing!, al-
low half as much space between,
und away from fences or walls,
as the natural heights for these
plant* in the catalogue. Thni the
most common type of 8nirea, the
Van Houttei, which reaches a full
height of from six to eight feet
in most parts of Canada, should
fas planted from three to four feet
apart or the same distance from
walk, wall or fence, for decora-
tive effect. For a hedge, however,
it may be planted closer.
Again the common peony, which
grows to a height of two and a
ha!f feet when full grown, should
have about 18 inches between
plants.
Have Vegetables Hand?
In the kitchen garden, at the
d'.or, it is advisable of course to
keep a plentiful supply of salad
material like leaf and head let-
tuce, onions and, possibly, celery.
The latter is set out in the gar-
den as well started plants usually
after all danger of frost is over.
For vegetable rows, there are
small cultivators pushed by hand
which will cultivate a plot 100 by
ISO in well under an hour and
these can be procured in larger
size for horse or tractor.
For Cut Flowert
If a supply of cut flowers is
wanted for the table, blooms with
long stems that will keep well In
water, horticultural authorities
urge the planting of sweet pca.,
snapdragons, cosmos, zinnias, lu-
pine, African Marigolds, scabiosis,
asters, tingle and double, verbena
and salpiglosis. If preferred these
can be grown in rows in the vege-
table garden.

There lies lone isle in the tropic seas,
A mountain isle, with beaches shining white,
Where soft stars smile upon its sleep by night,
And every noonday fans it with a breeze.
Here on a cliff, carved upward from the knees,
Three uncouth statues of gigantic height,
Upon whose brows t!ie circling sea-birds light,
Stare out to ocean ovtr the tall trees.
For ever gaze they at the sea and sky,
For ever hear the thunder, of the main.
For ever watch the ages die awny;
And ever round them rings the phantom cry
Of iome loat race that died in human pain,
Looking towards heaven, yet seeing no more than they.

MAINTAIN FISH STOCKS
One of the functions of the
Department of Game and Fisher-
ies is the maintenance of a stock
of fish in our lakes and rivers.
I am going to quote Mr. H. H.
MacKay, Biologist of the Depart-
ment, on this subject, for he
knos more about fish culture and
fish stocking than any other man
in Ontario. Mr. MacKay has full
charge of all the hatcheries in
Ontario and with his assistant, Mr.
A. H. Warner, looks after the
scientific side of the Department's
program.
Quoting from an article written
by Mr. MacKay: "A restocking
policy must be followed by regu-
lation, conservation and main-
tainence of the fish supply, con-
sistent with the demands made
upon H. The ways and means by
which the Department are endea-
vouring to realize these objec-
tives are by means of fish culture,
legislation, research and the edu-
cation of i tit- public."
Preirve Natural Conditions
"The raising of young fish in
our Government hatcheries will
not improve fishing unles* the
water in the streams and lakes
into which thete little fish are
planted, i suitable for them.
Many streams which formerly
supported trout will no longer do
so and to plant young fieh in such
waters is pure waste. Angler*
---- column ----
must therefore work for the pre-
servation of natural conditions in
the lakes and streams of our
Province if the splendid efforts
which the Government is making
to restock depleted waters is to
be of any avail."
"Prevention of pollution is one
of the first essentials in the main-
tenance of natural conditions in
our streams. Anglers should bring
to the attention of the Govern-
ment every case of suspected pol-
lution. The next essential is the
maintenance of a uniform stream
flow. In cleared and deforested
areas the melting snows in sp'-ing
cause floods and summer droughts
both destructive to fish life."
"Of course, we cannot reforest
our agricultural areas for the sake
of having a steady flow of waters
in our streams, but anglers should
take an active interest in the re-
forestation of waste lands. They
also should take an interest in
preventing the drainage of swamps
and the deforeststioa of areas
about the head waten of our
river systems."

disagreeable. He should of course
lift it when meeting the girl, and
again when leaving. It wouHd be

Grows Antagonistic
Antagonistic attitudes develop
frequently in children who are
given too much affection and
over-protection, according to Dr.
Mandel Sherman, psychologist

of Chicago's orthogenic school.
"When the child grows up and
leaves the family, he becomes dis-
appointed and frustrated because
tho3 in the outside world obvi-
ously cannot give him the atten-
tion and affection to which he
had become accustomed. This
causes him to believe that people
are unfair to him, and he later
expresses this attitude by joining
groups which are antagonistic to
existing authority."

LATE MARK MURPHY
---- column ----
Another one of Osprey's pionetrs,
Mr. Mark Murphy, passed away at
his home on the eighth line, ^sprey,
on Saturday, March 8, in his eighty-
third year. Although the deceased
had not been in the best of health
for over a year, his sudden death
came as a shock to the community.
The late Mr. Murphy was born in
Pickering and when quite young
camo with his parents to the Eighth
Line, Osprey, where he has lived ever
since. He was the only son of James
Murphy and Catherine Holmes of
Ireland and were among the early
pioneers to wrest a living from the
wilderness.
The late Mark Murphy was a ve y
highly respected citizen, honest and
industrious and well known through-
out the community of which he ha?
been a life-long resident.
He was of a kindly jovial dispo-
sition and enjoyed the companionship
of his many friends and neighbours
He was married to Bridget Agnes
Farden of Glenelg. To them were
born five children, Mamie (Mrs
Frank Brown) of Collinpwood, James
Elizabeth and John at home and Ad-
eline of Toronto. He is survived by
his widow and family, who mourn
the loss of a faithful husband and
loving father. His only sister, Mrs.
James Burns, predeceased him by 25
years.
The funeral took place on Saturday
morning to St. John's R.C. Church,
Glenelg where requiem mass ( was
said by Father Egam. Many were
the spiratual offerings for the repose
of his soul.
The pallbearers were: Messrs.
Wm. O'Brien, Donald Stephens, Fred
Hale, Walter Saigeon, Peter Somers
and Thos. Bemrose. May his soul
rest in peace.

AIRPLANE FORCED
DOWN IN OSPREY
---- column ----
(By Buckingham Correspondent)
Considerable excitement, as well
as anxiety, was caused here Monday
night when a plane from the Port
Albert air port made a forced land-
ing in Mr. Herb Hawton's field. The
machine, a twin motored Blenheim
bomber, developed engine trouble
half an hour after taking- off and was
brought down with slight damage to
the Diane and a small cut on the
face of one of the crew.
An inspector and mechanics from
the air port arrived later to test the
engines and remove small part pre-
paratory to having it taken out by
truck when the roads are fit. Mean-
while two men from the air port are
guarding the plane and staying at
the home of Mr. Herb Taylor.
A large number of people took
advantage of the opportunity to see
one of these machines on the ground
and the pleasant, courteous manner
of those men from England in show-
ing all who came and in answering
innumerable questions, but strength-
ens our wish for their success and
safety in training- to do battle with
Hitler's birds of prey.

CEYLON PUPILS AID TELEGRAM
BRITISH WAR VICTIMS' FUND
About $45.00 was realized by the
teacher and pupils of Ceylon Public
School for the Toronto Telegram
British War Victims Fund. The
pupils cut put blocks for a quilt, the
mothers did the quilting; and the
pupils sold tickets on the quilt for a
draw, which was made at a dance
held in the Ceylon hall Wednesday
night of last week. Mr. Bert Magee
of Eugenia was the lucky winner.
The money has been sent to the To-

---- column ----
Death called one of Flesherton's
most highly respected citizens on
Tuesday mopiing of last week, in the
person of Adelaide Elizabeth Arm-
strong, beloved wife of Mr. F. H. W.
Hickling, in her 77th year. Death
occurred at 6.30 a.m. at her home
here following a lengthy illness of
some three years.
The late Mrs. Hickling waa a
daughter of the late John W. Arm-
strong and was born at Inistioge on
the old homestead and moved with
her parents to Flesherton a t an early
age. Her father was a J.P. and Div-
ision Court Clerk for the Flesherton
district She spent almost her entire
life in Flesherton, except when she
attended Ontario Ladies' College at
Whitby.
She was united marriage in 1901 to
Frederick H. W. Hickling of Flesh-
erton and had resided here most of
the time except for several years
when they lived at Sault Ste. Marie,
Ont. Surviving;, besides her sorrow-
ing husband, are three brothers and
one sister, John W. Armstrong of
Toronto, Rev. Albert E. Armstrong

The late Mrs. Hickling was a lady
of sterling quality and was highly
regarded by all who knew her. She
was a member of St. John's United
Church, and while health prevailed
was a constant attendant at the ser-
vices. She also took an active part
in the work of the Ladies' Aid, Wo-
man's Missionary Society and the
Women's Institute and a willing
worker in the W.C.T.U. Her loss to
her native town is greatly deplored
and she will be missed in all the
village activities.

was held in St. John's United church
at 2:30 o'clock p.m., with her pastor,

Aid Ontario Tourist
Campaign In States
---- column ----
Citizens of Ontario and those in
sister provinces are at last rflally
wide awake to the real neH for the
millions of dollars of United States
f umlii wbkh pour across tie boHi-r
wit',; the arri al of tourists. Never
before have all our various public
agencies put so much effort into the
job of coaxing United States citizens
to spend their holidays in Canada.
Advertisements in periodicals pub-
lished on the other side of the line
have been increasing in volume and
in quality. Through one of these
advertisements, Prime Minister Mac-
kenzie King has personally addressed
United States people, extending a very
hearty invitation to them to come on
up. In this province, Douglas R.
Oliver, in charge of the tourist
bureau, is redoubling his efforts to
increase the flow of U. S. cars into
Ontario this summer. Convention
bureaus are exerting unusual effort
to get more people in, and as one
result of this, thousands of members
of the American Legion will comj to
Toronto this summer for their annual
meeting.
The general result of all this act-
ivity should be good, but only if we
continue to fight against the propa-
ganda which Nazi agents in the
United States continue to spread.
Friends of Germany, without doubt,
will keep up their whispering cam-
paign that tourists may be held for
military duty in Canada, that food
is rationed, and that gasoline is ex-
pensive and scarce. It would seem
to be in order now for Canadians to
set up the machinery to make sure
that citizens throughout the United
States read the truth. You cannot
always fight progaiganda with silence.
To the end of making the invita-
tion a more personal one to friends
in the United States The Advance
suggested that the Flesherton Old
Boys' and Girls' Association sponsor
a local movement for a Grey County
Old' Home Week the latter part of
June and the first week in July to
take in the American national holiday
and through the columns of the local
press give a personal invitation to
their friends to come to Ontario and
Grey County for their holidays this
summer. We would like to have an
organizer come to Flesherton at an
early date and explain the scheme to
the lively local Old Boys' and Girls'
Association, the logical organization
tio sponsor such an event.

BASS CULTURE
The raising of young ba*w i
one cf the most difficult prob-
lemg in fish culture, for unlike
the trout or the whitefish, th
Ita&'os canr.ot be stripped of their
eggs as '.his process kills the par-
ent fish. Fishes which spawn in
schools an- of such a nature that
their cgrtrs and sperm flow freely
from the body when rip, but th
l>a<;s must build a nest, come to-
gether in pairs, and spread th
'KK laying period over several
clays. Apparently, one reason for
this is that the egs of the feinala
do not ripen al! at the same time.
Since this is so we must bring
the adult bass together in ponds,
leave them to pair naturally, and
leave the male bass with the nest
for several weeks. This can best
be understood if I explain th
way in which the- basses repro-
duce. In natural waters, when
they warm in the spring, the mala
Itass selects a site protected
against wave action and to som
extent, from natural enemies. H
dears the ooze from this site by
fanning with his tail and lower
fins, leaving a cleared circular
area of gravel. This is the nest.
Hatching of Young Bass
When the nest is completed, if
:he water temperature has reach-
ed 65 the male drives a female
over the nest and a few of her
eggs are extruded and fertilized
'y the male. This is repeated a
number of times until there r
everal thousand eggs In th
(travel of the nest. Then tht
male mounts guard, driving away
all other fishes including the fe-
laales. He watches the eggs for
several weeks and when they
hatch guards the young for some
time.
The young at first are very tiny
and live on the egg sack which is
atill attached to their bodies. In
a week or so they have grown
considerably and have absorbed
the remainder of the yolk. They
are now r<?ady to feed and rise to
the surface. The male bass seems
to know that his job it finished
and he drives into the school
scattering them in all directions,
riiis is why we find young bass
in July scattered all through the
shallow waters if the hatch has
!>een successful -for that year.

ister Mackenzie King,
see
At the start of the tremendous
war drama in the Balkans, ail in-
itial seriei of triumphs for the
German military machint in both
Yugoslavia and Greece appeared
all but inevitable.
Hitler Must Act Faet
Far from inevitable, however,
(wrote Edward Bomar of the
Associated Press) was it that such
victories at the early capture of
Belgrade and the overrunning of
the Yugoslavs' richest areas would
b followed by the smashing of
all obstacles to the Nazi drive to
th east. "Only the verdict of
fateful battles to the sout/h
could decide whether Hitler's gen-
erals would be able to match in
th Balkans the quick victories
won in the Low Countries and in
France last year," Mr. Bomar
continued, in one of the clearest
analyses of the situation made
last week. "They are forced by
necessity to try to execute in a
hurry Hitler's injunction to smash
the dangerous new British-Greek-
Serb alliance and drive the Brit-
ish forces from southeastern Eur-
ope. With United States aid in-
creasing steadily though slowly,
time is no ally of the Nazis . . .
Germany is faced with the neces-
sity of a quick decision to avoid
the alternative of a long struggle
with its perils that Turkoy and
even Russia might join the foes."
Most military observers saw in
the Balkan campaign the major
part of an attempt to wrest con-
trol of the entire Mediterranean
from Britain and to win the war
thi* year. Another part of the
same drive was the new Na/,i
campaign in Libya which might
develop into a drive to close
fche Mediterranean at Gibraltar

Spain)- -with or without the aid

At Tvrkejr'a Back Door
But Germany could never con-
quer the Mediterranean miles-.
Turkey were first put out of the
picture, either by military con-
quest or by diplomacy. Thei pro-
Axis coup in Iraq last week plac-
ed Turkey in a doubly dangerous
position German air bases could
now be located at her back door.
It was believed that Hitler would
shortly demand that Turkey be-
tray her alliances or be herself
attacked. In the latter event,
there was no question that Turkey
would defend herself with all th
force she could muster. Last
week thoujfh still non-belligerent,
Turkey was helping the anti-Axis
allies in rnore ways than one,
chief of which consisted in keep-
ing the Bulgarian army immobil-
ized. (British quarters hinted last
week in Istanbul that Turkey
might declare war soon. They
suggested she would remain on the
defensive, but could permit Brit-
ain to use Turkish air bases and
to move warships through the
Dardanelles into the Black Set.)
U-S. Approaches Zro Hoar
In Washington last week, the
opinion of most observers wan
that April was likely to be the
month for events which would
send the United States into the
war. It was thought that the
U.S., if any ruptures in foreign
relations were made, would break
with Italy first, then Germany.
Before another month was up, ob-
servers said, the American na-
tion would be very close to the
state of actual belligerency a
state of war can and may be es-
tablished without formal declara-
tion. The future war role of the
United States was just about at
the zero hour.
Mateuoka to Moscow
Japan'* Foreign Minister Mat-
suuka left Berlin "suddenly" laat
week for home, having been en-
tertained in two Axis capitals to
several exhibitions of fireworks
that went "pfft!" (Italy's Ionian
Sea disaster in an engagement
with the British Navy and Yugo-
slavia's .stand against Germany).
Kn route l>nck to Japan, Matsuoka
stopped off in Moscow again for
an important appointment rela-
tive to nt- initiation of a llusso-
Japanosc non-Eggnulon pact. His
meeting there with Soviet officials
---- column ----
was watched very closely by th
British, who, according to foreign
military observers recently re-
turned from the Far East, be-
lieved that if Japan were success-
ful in concluding such a pact she
would start a land, sea and air
attack on Hong Kong.
"Waiting- Period" at End?
In the Dutch East Indies, too,
authoritative circles were of a
similar mind. There the view was
that the "waiting period" in the
Far East would shortly come to
an end and that concrete action
toward Japan's aim of a "new
order" in Asia would be exped-
ited. Reports that Thailand would
very soon join the Axis and shar-
pon the crisis in the Paific, cen-
tering on Singapore, appeared to
be well substantiated.

CHAPTER ONE
Beside the mailbox, bearing the
name of Harry (.'. Thomas, stoo.l
a young girl of some nine or ten
years. She whistled shrilly and two
other girls o\' about her age came
out ot the shrubbery.
"Did'ya Ma give you a dime for
ice cream, Harriet?" asked one.
"I was lucky even to get out,"
replied Harriet Thomas. "Here
comes the ice cream man. I'll
handle the negotiations."
An elderly, weary mail, driving a
decrepit car, stopped at her hail.
He glared at them resent fully.
"It's no use. My boss says there
Ain't no such thing as an ice cream
wagon with charge accounts."
"I got another proposition. Mr.
Green," said Harriet. "My two
friends here have got dimes.
They're willing to buy two tee
creams for cash, if I get one free."
"Oh, no!" said the driver.
"Let's go to Hosey's tee cream
parlor," said Harriet to her com-
panions. They had gone but a few
feet when Mr. Green called:
"Wait a minute! They each got
dimes?"
"Right! They buy for ca*h n<l
I get one free for brinimg the bus-
iness."
"Three ice creams for twenty
cents," Mr. Green figured mentally
for a moment. "All right. " He dish-
ed up three ice creams and the
three little girls began eating
them. "Come, where are the
dimes?"
"Mine's home." said Harriet's
etoo^e, Emily, gulping the rest ot
the ice cream.
"And mine's in the "
"In the bank. I suppose," Har-
riet, in a chagrined voice, inter-
rupted AI. Belle, her second
stooge. She nodded and Harriet
hastened to forestall Mr. Green's
wrath. "They double-crossed me.
loo, Joe. I'm only the middle man."
Sister Mary's Upstairs
"Sure, I kuow. The middle man
of all the trouble I've ever had on
this street!" said the inseused
sweet vendor.
"Harriet!" called Mrs. Thomas.
"Harriet!" the Intonation caused
the smell girl to hide her ice cream
under her dress.
"Well, this time you kfpt your
promise!" smiled Mrs. Tlioma-s.
"Your dress is just as clean as
wht-n you put It on. Rim upstairs
and wash your hands . . . Why,
what's the matter, dear?" The little
ffrl was twitching as though hit
by a spurt of ice cold water.
"Nothing, mother. It's Uirued a
httle chilly, I think."
"Chilly? Aren't you feeling well?
Why, your teeth are chattering!"
"I'm all right. I'll wa*b up, like
you said."
"But d-arlinjj, are you sure?" She
pressed Harriet dote. "1 must take
your temperature. Why, it is ehilly
all of a sudden!" Stepping back
to look at her daughter, Mrs. Thom-
as saw the chocolate ice cream
oozing thruugh the child's d^ees.
"We gotta face it, Mom. Things
just have to Inppen when I'm
around!"
"Yes, 1 know," sighed Mrs.
Thomas, "t'pstairs with jon!
Change everything down to your
skin. And tell Mary father'll be
honiH any niiuute, so we'll have
dinner as soon as she can coax
herself away fi-oui the mirror!"
Kearing thf> liathroom. Harriet
heard her nist.-r Mary's voice. Sii>
stopped and lisuned. Mary was <t
grown young lady with iwo steady
beaux. The tone In her voice pro-
mised something inte:-etiiip to lla:-

came Mary's voice, "but you've got
to give me time to think." After a
pause, she continued: "I ... I
really hadn't regarded you in last
light." Another pause. "I really
never thought of you in that way."
Then again: "It's a very serious
tiueston you've asked me . . . It's
not that I don't regard it as an hon-
or ... Marriage is an Important
matter. A woman can't a girl
can't just say yes or no as simply
as all that."
"Let me in, Mary," said Harriet.
Aifter some hesitation the door was
opened. "You all alone?"
"1 thought I heard you talking
to Home one ... 1 guess I was
wrong. You better hurry. Mom says
it's nearly time for dinner."
Mrs. Thomas and her second
daughter. Evelyn, aged seventeen,
wt -e busy about the dinner when
Harriet, in a clean dress, appear-
ed. "I know something I won't
tell aud it ain't two midgets In a
peanut shell!"
"Harriet, how many times do 1
have to tell you not to spy on your
sisters?"
Talking to Herself
"The last time you said you
weren't going to tell me ;u.i:n'
Mary's gonna get married!"
'Mary!" cried Mrs. Thomas am-
azed. "How how do you know?"
"I heard her talking in the bath-
room, eo I listened."
" "You shouldn't listen to people
talking."
"If I don't listen wlven they are
talking when jun 1 suppcsed to
listen?"
"Well, never mind that. Who did
Mary say she was goiug to marry?"
"She didn't say. Here's Pop!"
Harriet ran to the door and sprang
into Mr. Thomas's arms. "Gee,
Pop. I'm glad you're home."
"Are you, ha,ly?" he said, smil-
ing fondly.

Washing greasy pans need not
be a painful job for the house-

pan is still hot, then fill the pan
with hot. soapy water and allow
to soak until dishwashing time.
If the water has then become
cool and bits of grease cling to
the pan, refill with hot water, let
it boil up on the stove for a min-
ute or two. then wash in strong
soap suds in the regular manner.
Rinse in clear hot water and dry.

The, fastest thing on this earth
is the gyroscope, some types of
which whirl round at 47,000 revo-
lutions a niinute. This means that
any point on the circumference
is moving at 55. 8 miles a minute!
The principle of the gyroscope
has been known for centuries, and
many boys own toy gyroscopes.
It was from one of these that
Elmer A. Sperry, inventor ot' the
Sperry Gyroscope, got his idea.
Gyroscopes are used mainly in
mono-rail trains, air liners, and
huge sea-going steamships, and
they range in weight from 60 Ib.
to more than 1 00 tons. Those in
huge liners are installed in a
special room and are looked after
by an expert, because they ; n-
crease the speed of the ship, pr- 1 -
vent rolling, and prevent sea sick-

THE PRESS AND THE
GOVERNMENT
Misconceptions relating to the right
of the press to criticize, commend or
suggest to government bodies, civic,
provincial or federal, is often assailed.
For that reason it is essential that
the position of the press in its rela-
tionship to governmental bodies
should be examined.
Many well-meaning people con-
ecientuously believe that the press
should express no conviction upon
civic, provincial or federal affairs.
They assume that to offer criticism
is to become partisan. They confuse
the meaning of the words "indepen-
dent" and "neutral." There is a very
real and vital difference between the
two. To be independent is to reserve
the inalienable right of every citizen
to approve or disapprove of any pub-
lic matter without thoughtof servi-
tude to any particular party or group.
To be neutral is to avoid reference to
any contentious matter. To sum up the
two it would be fair to say that ind
pendence was that same privilege of
the individual to decide for himself,
for which party he shall vote, or
which church he shall attend without
pressure from party executives or
religious dignitaries. To be neutral
la to admit that one is not prepared
to come to a decision or make a stand
on anv matter, and .therefore to leave
it alone.
Members of civic bodies sometimes
---- column ----
point out that newspapers have such
a tremendous influence in the com-
mvnity, and that their circulation is
so wide-spread that they have an
advantage over those with whom they
disagree. This is true only in-so-far
as the individual refuses to take ad-
vantage of the privileged granted by
almost every newspaper of using the
columns of the press, to express his
or her views. There is however, a
much more important angle to this
question. Newspapermen are equip-
ped to give more adequate study to
municipal affairs than most individu-
als. At their fingertips they have in-
formation which is not so readily
available to every citizen. Their
representatives attend meetings of
civic bodies, and therefore have the
opportunity of i-ettinc a better
understanding of municipal affairs
than the average voter. Of even
greater importance is the almost uni-
versal attitude of the public to expect
advice and leadership from the press.
The newspaper is often the only
medium through which citizens may
keep in touch and abreast of the
community. They expect, and have
the right to expect, tha'. their news-
paper will keep them advised of what
is going on, and will also, through the
information at its disposal, endeavour
to interpret the news. The news-
paper which fails to do this, is
failing in what often amounts to its
supreme task in the community.
Another assumption of some men
and women in public office is that
any criticism offered in a newspaper
is personal, rather than objective.
That is not true. Newspapers have
been know n to conduct violently per-
sonal campaigns, but it is the excep-
tion rather than the rule, and if anv
criticism violates the laws of defama-
tor" libel, the individual always has
recourse to the courts.
The newspaper which comments on
public affairs, far from being presum-
ptious, is but fulfilling one of the
most important and vital functions of
the press. It is genuine in its desire
to be of service to the community, it
will open its columns to signed letters
from those who disagree with
---- column ----
its editorial opinions, but all too often
those who have this privilege fail to
avail themselves of the opportunity,
preferring to carry on a street corner
or platform feutl against the news-
paper. By intelligent comment on
public affairs the newspaper prevents
the rise of unscrupulous men who
seek office for private gain, and it
often brings to light factors in a situ-
ation that have been entirely oyer-
ooked by the civic administrations
and the public. In this service alone
newspapers have saved their com-
munities from colossal financial loss
and from racketeers who would use
public office to enrich themselves.

IMPROVEMENT IN HIGHWAYS
The improvement in Ontario's
iighways system is undoubtedly of
benefit to motorists in the Province
and an attraction to United States
tourists, but there is one other factor
which must be remembered. Modern
four-lane highways are in themselves
an incentive to excessive speed, and
daily evidence goes to show that the
campaifrn for safer driving must not
be relaxed. With the improvement
in highways there is even greater
need for supervision, and Attorney-
General Conant forecasts an enlarge-
ment of the Ontario Provincial Po-
lice Highway Traffic Patrol in the
very near future. As it is, the high-
ways have been expanded consider-
ably faster than has been the num-
ber of patrol men. Recent amend-
ments to the Highway Traffic Act
make it illegal to drive at night with
parking lights, and authorize cities,
towns and villages to pass by-laws
restricting sections of their highways
to speed limits between fifteen and
thirty miles, should also accomplish
something in the direction of safety.
Big Night In Toronto

Offer to Help Relieve
Emergency Need for Farm Help!
Already more than 6,000 of Ontario's sturdy High School
students have volunteered their services to the Farm Service
Force of Ontario! They are devoting their summer months
to help farmers meet the greatest production demands in
their experience. Students will be relieved of school
responsibilities as farmers require them. Especially pre-
pared courses of study have been offered to fit these
willing young people for the summer's work on the farm.
Britain is depending upon Ontario's farmers to supply a
great -proportion of their neds for cheese, bacon, con-
centrated milk, and other farm products.

THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time. The day f Pentecost
occurred as far as we re able to
judge, on Sunday, May 28, A.D.
80. The eventi recorded in the
third and fourth chapters of AcU
took place In the summer of A.D.
30.
PUc*. The City of Jerusalem.
We should oome away from the
ttudy of thi luton with a new
conviction concerning the divine
origin and th greatnvsa of the
Church of ChrUt. We should be
reminded that loyalty to tde
Chnroh and to the Christ of the
Church ik the great privilege and
obligation of every true believer
and of every contecrated disciple.
Birth of the Church
Acta 2:1. "And when the day
of Pentecost was come, they were
all together in one place." The
Feast of Pentecost was the second
of the three chief Mosaic festi-
val*. It fell on the fiftieth day
after the second day of the paae-
over. It celebrated the comple-
tion of the grain harvent. Special
offerings were made, and two
leavened loaves of wheat bread,
significant of the finished har-
vest, together with two lambs as
peaceofferings, were waved be-
fore the Lord. If passover re-
minded the Jewi of their redemp-
tion from the land of bondage,
Pentecost celebrated their pos-
session of the land of promise.
2. "And suddenly there came
from heaven a sound as of the
rushing of a mighty wind, and it
filled all the house where they
were sitting. 3. And there ap-
peared unto them tongues part-
Ing asunder, like as of fire; and
sat upo.fi each one of them."
obably the great noise was to
be taken as a symbol of mighty
power, whereas the tongues of
fire would be symbolic of purg-
ing and of dedication to a proph-
etic ministry, somewhat compar-
able to the experience of Isaiah
eight centuries before. 4. "And
they were all filled with the Holy
Spirit, and began to speak with
other tongues, as the Spirit gave
them utterance." This ability to
speak in foreign languages not
previously learned was merely a
temporary endowment granted
for a special purpose. It was one
ef those miraculous spiritual gifts
which marked the age of the
p.'M ' . The gift of tongues was
exactly the preparation needed by
the disciples for the task of wit-
nessing to the throngs who had
gathered from all parts of the
world to observe the fenst.
Book of tli* Holjr Spirit
The Book of Acts has often
been called the AcU of the Holy
Spirit, and truly io. 'Hie Spirit
ef God it referred to eventy
limes in this one book. It is He
who is the energiiing power, the
lure guide and teacher of the
Church of Christ, not only for
the days of the Church whose his-
tory is recorded in thi.- book, hut
Jw ell the subsequent years of
ih Church's history in every
land. The dominance of the Holy
Spirit in the life of a ever is
not ordinarily to be te.-ted by the
presence of any ipecial /ift, such
as the ;'.i!': of tongue.*. One who
ie obedient to his Matter i.s grant-
ed the ability to do the will of
tJie Master, for the "fruit of the
Spirit is love, joy, putce, long-
ruffrring. kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, nifckiir- . -elf-con-
trol."
Salvation Only In Him
Acts 4:X. "Then IVlcr, filled
with the Holy Spirit, Mi<l unto
them, Ye rulers of the people,
ml elders,
V. If we this duy arc examined
concerning a good de< d <ionu to

council, they conferred among
themselves,
16. Saying, What shall we do
to theee men? for that indeed a
notable miracle hath been wrought
through them, is manifest to all
hi' dwell in Jerusalem; and we
cannot deny it.
17. But that it spread no
further among the people, let us
threaten them, that they speak
henceforth to no man in this
name.
18. And they called them, and
charged them not to tpeak at all
nor teach in the name of Jesus."
II.. Disciple* Stand Firm
The Sanhedrin were compelled
to acknowledge that the miracle
had ben genuine; but also veal-
ired that if these men kept on
preaching, soon everyone would
believe in what they had denounc-
ed. The Sanhedrin's conclusion
was that the disciples should be
threatened and commanded to
---- column ----
speak no more in the name of
Jesus. No doubt, they would be
allowed to go out and preach if
they would leave out the name of
Christ and what Christ meant.
19. "But Peter and John answer-
ed and said unto them, Whether
it is right in the sight of God to
hearken unto you rather than
unto (Jod, jndgre ye: 20. for we
cannot but ipeak the things which
we saw and heard."
What boldn> .- these apostles
manifested! Standing before this
awesome body of men, they
frankly declared that even though
they knew it might involve their
immediate death, they positively
could not be kept from speaking
the things which they bad seen
and heard, namely, the teachings
of Christ, the Resurrection. Thou-
sands and thousands of men have
said thefe words since, many of
thorn suffering death at a conse-
quence.

Gardening . . . %
---- column ----
ARTICLE No. 7
---- column ----
A few special implements will
make gardening more interesting
and less arduous. These are not
expensive. For ordinary digging
both a spade and a digging fork
have a place. The first is ideal
for turning over soil in the
Spring or for breaking up sod.
The fork, lighter and quicker to
operate, is excellent for cultiva-
ting anytime through the season
and especially for breaking up
soil that has been plowed or .spad-
ed sometime earlier. For killing
weeds, thinning, cultivating large
vegetables and shrubbery, a small,
not-too-wide hoe, well sharpened
is the ideal tool.
To Prevent Jungles
One can do wonders with
flowers alone, but still more
amazing results will follow where
we combine flowers skilfully with
grass, winding walks, shrubbery
and bits of stone-work. In this
combining, however, we must
take, care not to reproduce a
jungle. A little preliminary plan-
ning and a rough sketch drawn
approximately to scale will help
wonderfully. Flowers and shrub-
bery niust not be so crowded that
they become spindly and weak.
Little flowers must not be hid-
den by tall things like full size
marigolds, cosmos or zinnias.
Beds must be so arranged that
we can keep down weeds and re-
move fading foliage. Above all
we must remember that unless
we are very skilful, it is best to
use a fair amount of lawn as a
foreground for our flowers.
Lawns are almost vital in cre-
ating garden pictures.
Feed !> Lawn
Thin lawns badly mixed with
weeds almost invariably have
poor soil. Sometimes only a lib-
eral application of commercial
fertilizer or well-rotted manure is
necessary to restore rich green-
nes*. Well fed, well wate ed
grass will usually crowd out
most weeds, though it will ap-
preciate some help from the gar-
dener who does not mind spanning
a few hours with a sha r p w.-eder.

How Con I?
BV ANNE ASHLEY
Q. How can I clean painted
walk without using soap?
A. Use two ounces of borax in
two quarts of water and one tea-
spoon of ammonia. Use about
half this quantity to each bucket
of water, and no soap will be re-
quired.
Q. How can I make use of dis-
carded umbrella ribs?
A. These ribs wake good and
lasting supports for trailing
flowers. If they are painted a
soft green, they will hardly be
noticed in the garden.
Q. How can I make an econ-
omical deodorizer for a sick
room?
A. An economical deodorizer
can be made out of a pint of
viaegar boiled with one quart of
myrrh.
Q. How can I bleach silk, wool,
Hnen, or cotton?
A. The best bleaching process
for these materials is to use one
teaspoon of peroxide of hydrogen
to H-tub of cold water. Let the
clothes soak in this ovenight; then
rinse and wash as usual. This
does not injure the fabric and
imparts a pure white.
Q. How can I prepare a good
waH paper cleaner?
A. Mix two cups of flour and
one tablespoonfuls of kerosene
with enough water to mak a stiff
dough; then knead thoroughly.
Use like ordinary cleaner.

Only about 400 of the star*

"They rang* in color from red,

The funeral of the late John D.
Clarke, who passed away last week

Mass., was held on Thursday after-
noon from the home of his brother-
in-law, Mr. P. H. W. Hickling. The

The late John Duncan Clarke was
born in Belhelvie, Aberdeen, Scotland,
in 1853, and came to Canada in his
early twenties. He was married to
Jennie Armstrong, daughter of the
late J. W. Armstrong of Flesherton,
in 1883. He served on the Hamilton

before going to Ottawa as secretary
to the Hon. David Mills, Minister of
Justice, and subsequently to his suc-
cessors, Hon. A. B. Aylesworth, Si:
Chas. Fitzpatrick and the Hon. Chas.
Doherty. Among his most interest-
ing assignments as a newspaper re-
porter, he covered the Philadelphia
Centennial Exhibition in 1876 and the
Republican convention of 1880, at
which the Hon. Jas. Garfield defeated
Gen. V. S. Grant, who was seeking a
second term. Before retiring in 1922,
Mr. Clarke was chief of the Clemency

Hamilton Clarke, and five grand-
children. Dorothy and Peter Clarke
of Winchester, Mass., and Paul, Jack
and Barbara Clarke of Vancouver,
children of his late son. George.
With the passing of Mr. Clarke The
Advance has lost a true friend, as he
had frequently contributed articles
to this paper while in good health. It
was always a pleasure to have him
come into the office when in town and
relate some of the many experiences
he had while in newspaper work and
at Ottawa. He had many warm
friends in Flesherton. who sympa-
thize with Jack in the loss of a

HIGHWAY DEATHS APPALING
Mr. Justice Hope told the Grandl
Jury that the publication each weefe
end of the casulty list of persons kil-
led in motor accidents might brinjp
home to Canadians how appalling is
the death toll on our highways.
His Lordship went further ar.J
pointed out that if the motor
or fatalities was contrasted with th
list of those killed in the war, th
citizens would be appalled.
The words of the learned justice
are timely and truly represent cond-
itions on the highways of Canada to-
lay "Many people fail to appreciate
the menace they are to the lives anJ
property of others." His Lordship
added, noting that no manslaughter
ca'sos were on docket before him for
trial.
Most highway accidents are due
to carelessness and disregard for the
rights of others. In some cases liqu-
or plays an important part. What-
ever the causes of accidents arc, how-
ever, it is appj.rent that even more
drastic regulations than now exist
will have to be enacted.
One of the most interesting bullet-
ins is one in the maternity wards of
a Montreal hospital which says "No
Children Allowed."

Raising Young Bass
(No. 39)
In my article last week I told
of the way in which Uis basos
B^awn in nature. The Game and
fisheries Itepartment ralso many
thousands of young buss earn year
! -but they have to imitate the nat-
ural en\ iromue-ut closely tor full
access. To do this is very expens-
ive and fi:: sterling bass cost much
More than fiugerllnss of, trout or
pickerel. It is this high cost that
wakes it so difficult to raise young
ban* iu quantities,
lu various places Itirougiioul the
Province, tin Department has
toullt a number of bass liatcue-rles.
Theeo cousist of a series of pouda.
rectangular in shape and less than
an acre in extent. They are sep-
arately fed and drained. Tho source
of the water supply U usually a
spring creek, the waters of which
have been heated tn some extent
bjr holding them above a dam be-
fore being distributed to the var-
ious ponds. These ponds vary in
depth from a knife edge to six feet
at the outlet, where tu> ftah may
be corralled in a email basin when
the waters of the pond are low-
ered.
In Hatcheries
If small mouth bass are being
l>i -opugaled nests are constructed
of gravel. The diameter of this
uest Is approximately two teet and
is HO placed that when the pond to
flooded, the depth of water over It
will range from eighteen lnche to
two feet. Large mouth bass do not
need nests for they will clean off
suitable areas themselves.
Before the breeding SMSOU, the
adult bass are introducd Into th
pond iind if the temperature Li
right eventually a large number
of young bass are produced. Th
greatc-st vigilance is noeded to re-
tain the heat In the pond. A cold
upell, of cloudy Jays will cause ser-
ious losses among the gg, BO the
attendants, by various method*
which tlioy bave learned, try to
maintain a uniform temperature
if the witter. When the young has*
rise to the surface they are col-
lected iu cheesecloth nets and plac-
ed In retaining ponda where they
are hel^ and fed until they are
ready for distribution In natural

THE WARWEE K Commentary on Current Events
New R\isso - Japanese Pact
May Change War's Course
---- column ----
Sir Robert C'live, the eminent
Britisher who has been Ambass-
ador at Tokyo and Brussels and
minister to the Vatican and Per-
sia, and is now travelling on this
continent, very recently expressed
the vie-w that to a diplomat Russia
and Japan appeared to hold the
key to the future of the world. He
predicted the early signing of an
accord between the two countries.
May Change War'* Course
Subsequent events dramatically
bore out his prediction. Last week
a Sovlet-Ja,panese neutrality pact
was signed, ending 24 years of
trained Far Eastern relations aud
giving the western nations a new
yogar to puzzle over. Most observ-
ers agreed that the pact rivalled
IB world Importance the non-ag-
gression accord In 1939 between
Germany and Russia aud that it
would powerfully affect the course
of the war, on every front.
Interpretations
Editorial writers all over the
globe spread themselves on this
latest international development.
From amongst a score of Inter-
pretations we have selected sev-
eral representative opinion. 1 ) which

Interests so long as China hangs

Pravda, the Communist Party
organ Jn Moscow: "The neutrality
pact and declaration are documents
of vast political significance, since
they constitute an important step
for the Improvement of relations
between the U. S. S. R. and Japan,
whose governments are guided in
this case by a 'desire to strengthen
peaceful and friendly relations be-

U. S. S. R. Talks With Turkey
Dorothy Thompson, columnist:
"The pact Is a definite gain for
Russia, for It means that Japan
bows out of the Axis as far an Rus-
sia Is concerned. It Is, therefore,
It would seem, a loss for Germany,
which has every interest In keep-
Ing Russia weak and occupied else-
where than iu the Middle East . . .
Tha best-informed people all seem
certain that the Soviet Union will
not enter the war against Germany
unless she is attacked, but official
pronouncements from Moscow do
Indicate that she Is preparing to
give what aid she can to Turkey,
the laat non-violated nation in the
Balkans. Naturally, Russia wants
to be sure that, If she becomes en-
gaged In war In the west, Ja>pau
will not attack her In the east. The
pact assures her of Just this."
Nichl Nlchl, Tokyo: "The con-
clusion of the new neutrality pact
allows Japan to avoid two-front op-
erations, that U, fighting both tha
United States and the Soviet Un-
ion, In case of a positive advance
of her southward policy and a crto-

U. S. Unruffled?
U. 3. Secretary of State Cordell
Hull made a formal statement with
regard to the pact declaring: "Tlio
significance of the pact between
the Sovlat Union nnd Japan relat-
ing to neutrality eould be over-
estimated . . . Tha policy of this
government, of course remains un-
changed."
More Help For Britain
Nevertheless a number of steps
were taken last week by the
IH>.V,-I < i imi <t.,< In the United States
which served to bring the nation
to the south of us closer into iti >
war: ten coast guard cutters were
transferred to Britain for anti-
submarine BOA patrol; President
Roosevelt reopened the R<vt Sea
and OuW of Aden to American vev
sel (U. S. Rhlps now are permit-
te<l to go all the way to tho Suez
Canal with supplies for the Allies);
the United States pledged protec-
tion to UrriHii 111,1 and obtained Hi >
right to build nlr bases and forti-
fications thfliH - the southern tip
of Greenland was made the umv
limit of western hemisphere de-
fense; President Roosevelt made a

except in conilmt xunes; the U. S.
navy began |Mi'pHvntloiil for till 1

swift arming of gome 1600 govern-
ment aud privately owned mer-
chant vessels.
With regard to the ticklish con-
voy question which must be settled
very soon if American-produced
war material is to continue to reach
Britain, the New York Times said:
"The President has not yet reach-
ed a decision. He will exhaust
every other alternative before
reaching any conclusion on the
question of convoying merchant-
men across the Atlantic by United
States warships." The newspaper
suggested tliat Mr. Roosevelt was
considering a plan to allow Ameri-
can merchant ships to carry war
materials to Halifax, to bo trans-
shipped overseas.
Three Warnings
Warnings that the United States
was on the point of going to formal
war with Germany came from the
lips of at least three members of
the President's Cabinet last week.
Vice-President Wallace declared
that the United States was ready
for war if American rights were
transgressed. (Presumably he bad
In mind the probability that U. S.
ships, now going to Red Sea ports
with war material for the British,
would be attacked by the Axis at
whatever time the Axis was will-
ing to accept a formal state of war
with the United States). Secretary
of the U. S. Navy, Frank Knox,
toM the House naval affairs com-
mittee that: "I don't like to be a
soare-moiiRer. but from the Inform-
ation I have, I say we are now
in the midst of the decisive per-
iod of this war." Secretary of War
Hury -Stimson, testifying at a Con-
gressional hearing on United
SUtcs defense problems, warned
that the United States "Is facing a
dangerous emergency which may
b very prolonged." He said also
that it might become necessary for
the United States to wage war, In
iu own defense, outside the Ameri-
cas.

"FANNY BY GASLIGHT"
By Michael Sadleir
In "Fanny by Gaslight" Mr. Sad-
leir re-creates a London of s-eventy
years ago when the dark streets of
the Empire capital wore lit after
dark by a yellow flicker of street
lamps. He draws an exciting pic-
ture of the taverns, nlghthouses
and .,'ii>ii--i [..i.in.s of the period,
full of motley Londou crowds. But
through them moves a smali,
hi'owu-haired, bright-eyed girl, who
meets life with cheerful gallantry
aud whose love-story is both tender
and passionate.
The girl Fanny was a child with
no background save one of viol-
ence and catastrophe, a child win
grows up into a life of courage,
gaiety aud self-forgetful devotion.
As an old woman, living iu a small
town In France, she tolls her story
to a sympathetic Englishman.

Contrary to a long popular be-

cording to Dr. Oswald Swinney
Lowsley.
Dr. Lowsley, head of the de-

said the city man is more virile
because he is beginning to appre-
ciate the benefits of exercise and
right living.
"MANKIND IS IMPROVING"
"Mankind is improving," he
said.
Men and women should system-

bolstering to be able to "take it,"
he emphasized.
"The lot of the man on the

Points to Benefits
---- column ----
When Wendell Willkie visited
Toronto, one of those waiting on
the city hah steps was his sister
Julia whose quiet life devoted to
scientific pursuits is in sharp con-
trast to the tumultuous public life
of the great American champion
of democracy.
CrWds swept the police aside,
perhaps for the first time in the
city's history, as the triumphal
procession swept up Yonge street
to the cheers of the Canadians
assembled to honour the man who
had travelled to Great Britain to
report on the Empire's war effort.
Miss Willkie had come from St.
Catharine.H, somewhat nervously,
wondering why Toronto should be
interested in her all of a sudden.
Canadians wanted to express their
gratitude to Wendell Willkie by
giving his sister a day she'll never
forget. But now that the shout-
ing is over, she has resumed her
quiet life in St. Catharines, de-
voting her time to her book-filled
room and her laboratory. She is
a wine chemist. But her status
has altered. She is no longer just
a serious, middle-aged woman, but
a celebrity, the sister of tha man
who many believe may be the next

president of the United States.
She told reporters she believa*
that the occasion of dinner .-should
be made into a more convivial
affair with wines. "In time," she
said, "the custom would have
beneficial effect on the national
digestion and would probably
make Canadians into a nation of
brilliantly witty conversationists."
One suggestion Miss Willkis
made was that Canadian wines
should be given names that
breathe the spirit of Canada in-
stead of recalling old France.
French wine, she thinks, can
never ba made in Canada and
comparisons between Canadian
and French wines are a waste of
time.
"Our climate is so different
from that of France. W could
give our wine the same sort of
bouquet but we are chiefly con-
cerned with making a palatable
product from Canadian grapes.
The result must be judged on the
merit of the product. Because
they taste differently, Ontario
wines are in no wise inferior,"
she said, adding that the cutting
off of French wine supplies wouU
make very littla difference t
Canadian wine consumption be-
cause importations were never on
a large scale.

Some sound, slight yet suspici-

from his wife he reached out his
foot and closed the grill of the hot
air furnace. A sudden sneeze from
upstairs confirmed bis suspicion of
having been overheard, and he con-
tinued: "A boy Ted's age mar-

Without waiting to clean up,
Harriet betook herself to tbe up-

mouthpiece: "Hellman Auto Ag-

ts-r, please." After an interval Ted
answered.
"Oh. It's you. Hello, Harriet."
"I celled up to make a business
proposition." said Harriet in a cau-
tious voice. "If I told you that my
sister Mary spent an hour in trout
of her mirror just in case a cer-
tain young man happened to drop
in that certain young man would
owe me some ice cream, and he
might just as wel! bring it with

"Thanks, Harriet! At eight o'-
clock tonight you'll have a gallon
of pistachio ice cream!" Ted. grin-
ning broadly asked permission to
take out a Cornet demonstrator
car that evening. Mr. Hellman
granted It, but Ted had no more
than left the office until the 'phone
rang again and the some youthful
voice asked to speak to Jim Rey-
nolds. Ted's rival In selling Cor-

eager snapped up. And then Jim

When Harriet didn't answer the
call to dinner, Mary was sent up
after her. She fomul Harriet stand-

Various Types
Are Analyzed
Character Analysis Is Subject
of Talk Based on Physical
Trait*
Certain character types se--m to
have physical traits in comuaon,
Mrs. A. Cameron Grant pointed out
In an address on "Character An-
alysis" at a recent meeting <;f the
Mount Royal Women's Comm nity
Club. In the beginning of her talk
Mrs. Grant stressed the need for
guidance for young people caoosiug
a vocation. "It is such a wafp "f
time and energy to force d:ili!:vn
into fields where laey have no tal-
ents, making them feel inferior, in-
stead r-r guiding them in thi- dir-
ection iu~ which they can nuke a
definite contribution to society,"
she remarked.
SKIN i.'OLORS IXKLVENr-E
ACTIONS
Color has been foun'I to be mo:'e
than skin deep, the speaker noteii.
Environment influences life, habits
and finally general characteristics.
Hence, those at the equator where
extremes in seasons need not b
contended with, live an easy life,
with food and shelter and cloth-
Ing easily acquired. There i* no
need to be markedly creative. With
many free hours these people turn
to things artistic, colors, music,
characteristics associated with ;he
dark colored races. On the other
hand, groups moving farther north,
with no need to resist the heavy
rays of tue sun, have lighter skins,
tnd must struggle for daily needs,
until, in the north, the blonde races
are found practically and resource-
ful.
READING PHYSICAL
CHARACTERISTICS
Mrs. Grant described various
types of personalities ou the basis
of physical characteristics. She
mentioned the mental type who
prefers to fight with ideas and
words rather than with fiets: the
driving type, who is the football
hero in school and the engineer or
business man in adult life; the ty,.e
who becomes an executive because
he has learned to direct others;
the conservative type; and the
nian-of-action type who Joins the
air force or seeks other forms of
adventure.

Too late, I thought, to mend> my
life
Or build my soul anew,
Too many are the years behind,
The years ahead too few.
Around me and my .wintry
thoughts
There lay a wintry scene,
A bare and sodden garden pricked
With little points of green.
O peeping bulbs, Earth's NeW
Year thoughts,
Though Earth is old, so old,
Yet she can change the withered
past
To fla.ne of cracus gold.
And If the ancient Earth can
change
Then I can change as well.
The world shall see a new life rise
Where all my dead dreams fell.

The Press And The Churches
One of the most easily miscon-
structed relationships in the publish-
tnjr field is that between the news-
paper and the churches in the com-
munity it serves. The newspaper
man asks himself the question: "What
should be my attitude toward the
churches?" He endeavours to answer
that question so that he will be for
both to the churches and to himself.
Churches sometimes assume the
attitude that as they are supported
solely by voluntary donations, and a.-
they are a spiratual and moral force
in the community, any publicity de-
sired should be given without charge
by the newspaper. Strangely enough
the churches do not expect the same
privilege from any other business or
profession. It should be remembered
at the outset that most publishers are
church members, and that as individ-
uals they are decidec^y interested in
the welfare of the church with which
they are affiliated. They give regu-
larfly and as generously as their
circumstances permit. They attend
the various functions designed to
nlse funds for continuance of the
Church's work. As such they must
t>e considered as any other church
member who is conscientiously striv-
ing to support the church and what
3t stands for.
While newspapers are more gener-
ous with space to churches than to
other institutions, this is simply a
recogniion by the press of the
premier place held by the church in
the spiratual and moral sphere in the
community. However the church has
no legal right to expect the press to
give more generously than any indi-
vidual church member. It is not ex-
pected of the man who sells the
church fuel, or the public utilities
which serve the church. In larger
Centres it is not expected that the
organist should work without re-
Onuneration.
The press, we believe, will always
---- column ----
recognize the position and value of
the church in the community. It will
realize that the community without
the church would be like a rudderless
ship, not knowing whence the tide of
events and fortune might lead it.
The press will continue to give ser-
vice to the church as one important
institution to another, but the church
must also realize that to continue its
service, nt only to the church but to
the community, the newspaper must
have an income, and that income can
only come from the space it sells in
its columns. This same reasoning
must apply to charaitable organiza-
tions in the community. To them the
publisher and the men and women
who work for the publisher give gen-
erously of their private means and
of their time and talent. They too
must prosper if they are to continue
the support to the church, and all
kindred organizations seeking to
carry out an uplifting work in the
community.

OUR BRITISH FLEET
---- column ----
(By Poet's Friend)
Hold on; you ships of State,
Who guard our freedom's shores;
Hold on; till some sweet day,
When victory will be ours.
Sail on; you sea born warrior's
pride of the British fleet;
Sail on; till your duty's done,
Then rest at victory's feet.
Bear high; your royal banner,
Tis the ensign of British might;
The flag of a mighty nation;
With Honour, Truth and Right.
And when in the midst of battle,
God's own hand may save;
To take His own from the wicked.,
And from a sinful grave.
And when the day of victory comes,
Let us seal our faith in Thee;
And no more through ocean waves,
Search our brothers of the sea.

But the crow, according to experts
in Natural History, flies only 30 miles

pigeon makes only 40 miles an hour.
The telephone covers the distance
well, you might say, instatituiteoug-

t electric waves, travels with the
speed of light.
And it's the same between any two
cities of the continent. Whether your

THE EARLY CHURCH MEETING
HUMAN NEEDS.
Acts 4 : 327 : 60.
PRINTED TEXT, Acts 4 : 3235;
e : 1-7.
GOLDEN TEXT. And the multi-
tude of them that believed were
of one heart and soul. Acts 4 : 32.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time. Practically all of tho ev-
ents In our lesson occurred In A.D.
S6.
Place. The city of Jerusalem.
This lesson is filled wil-h com-
fort. \Ve are living in days wbeu
the Christian Church ie beins; at-
tacked on every hand, and when
many people are suffering In the
most terrible way because of their
loyalty to Christ. They began to
surfer for Christ in this chapter.
There have been some who have
likewise s-uffered down through,
every, age. ()>. faith Is a faith that
the world hates, and that some
men somewhere in every age try to
stamp out. The consequences ot
persecution which are found In the
long lesson which Is before us
are also being discovered to bo
the consequences of persecution
today, in many places. The final
result of these persecutions wax the
extending of the Church, the con-
firming of the disciples, and tha
final destruction of the powers at-
tempting to stamp out the Church.
The Jerusalem Church
At the opening of our lesson, the
first persecution, not a severe one,
had just passed. While the apost-
les wece thrown into prison, though
confined there only for a single
night, and while It Is true they had
been examined by tho Sanhedrln,
the following day, their form of
punishment was only a prohibition.
They wwe commanded never to
preaoh again In the name of Jesus
and were then released. Many per-
secutions followed, and finally, be-
fore forty years had passed, the
whole city of Jerusalem would be
on the ground in absolute ruin.
In the meantime, a very be-autlful
and Berene condition prevailed In
the mother Church.
All Things In Common
22. "And the multitude of them
that believed of one heart and soul:
and not one of them said that
aught of the things which he pos-
sessed was hie own; but tliey had
all things common." The Lord had
summed up one of tho two tables
of the Mottalc law in the command:
Thou shall love thy neighbor as
thyself. The Apostolic Church In
this time of holy enthusiasm and
devotion to the memory and com-
mands of Jesus, fulfilled His pre-
cepts in the most literal fashion. A
Christian who had money or the
means of securing it, could not see
i L-> poorer brother believer In want,
but loving him and treating him
as another part of himself, freely
shared what he had with his l.>ss
fortunate neighbor. What would
happen to the Church today If Its
members followed Christ's pre-
cepts as closely as did the men of
the early Church?
33. "And witb grt^at power gave
the apostles their witness of the
resurrection of the Lord Jesus:
and great grace was upon them
aJI." The power with which they
preached would seem to Imply
that tho consequence of their wit-
nessing to the Resurrection was

The Tiniest Rose
Is In Switzerland
---- column ----
In the tiny hamlet of Marbor-
get In the Jura Mountain range,
in Switzerland, flower lovers for
many years have been growing
perhaps the tiniest rose in the
world. A colonel in the Swiss
army, Roulet, procured one of
these jewel-like plants and pre-
sented it to Henri Correvon, the
eminent Swiss rock-garden spe-
cialist, who christened it "Rosa
rouleti" and propagated it.
The pigmy plants are little
more than hand high. The exquis-
ite semi-double flowers, produced
from April to November, are
bright rose-pink. The blossom is
so tiny that a bee stopping to call

Soviet Flier
Visits "Pole"
Veteran Lands Plane and
Party on Arctic Floe For
Scientific Study of Ice, Water
nd Weather Conditiona
A Soviet aerial polar expedi-
tion reported early In April that
it had landed on an Ice floe in the
zone of the "inaccessible Pole,"
the point in the Arctic Ocean
farthest from any land.
The expedition, which began its
hazardous flight by stages from
Moscow March 8, spent several
days studying ice, water and wea-
ther conditions.
The plane was piloted by I. I.
Cherevichny, veteran Polar flier.
He flew over the Northern sea
route to Wrangcll Island, then
proceeded some 850 miles farther
North.
The position of the ice floe
base was given ke 81 decree*
North Latitude, 180 degrees
Longitude, two degrees latitude
and five degrees longitude from
the "inaccessible Pole" and Ihe
point farthest North ever reached
by a Soviet plane in the Eastern
Arctic.
Cherericliny was accompanied
by lix crew men and three scien-
tists who were preparing for the
spring opening of navigation over
the Northern sea route.
This latest achievement cred-
ited to Soviet fliers is a sequel
to their previous exploit in flying
over the North Pole itself on May
21, 1987. After crossing the Pole
a Russian pilot set his plane down
13 miles from the Pole and left
a four-man expedition which was
rescued nine month* later after
drifting to a point off Greenland.

ON Controller Announces
Two Grades Only To Be Sold

---- column ----
Standardization of gasoline is
being placed in effect from coast
to coast in Canada, G. R. Cott-
relle, Dominion oil controller, said
in a recent interview at Calvary.
"I want if possible, to work
through the provincial govern-
me nts and I am glad to say that
almost every provincial lioily has
agreed to gasoline standardiza-
tion," Mr. Cottrclle said.
---- column ----
Vi'ler the standardisation plan
only two grades of g;iso)ine will
be sold to the general public-
premium gasoline, ontaining ethyl
fluid, and a standard grade gaso-
line. Standards are also being
adopted for fuels used by farmtrs
in tractors.
Mr. Oottrelle said standardiza-
tion permits ontrol of anti-
Vnock fluid (ethyl) Imported

from United States. It was im-
portant that such control be **-
ercised in the interest of Can!

for the fixing of gasoline price*
if such hould become necesaay,

It is expected that at least half

P. Dimmock, Division of Forag

Ottawa. According to experimental
trials conducted by the Dominion
Experimental Farms, the better
corn hybrids have yielded from 15
to 25 per cent more shelled corn
than the standard varieties. Similar
results have been reported by
mauy growers. Such increases
mak* possible tha production of

VITAMINS AND SHELL-SHOCK
Use of vitamins to prevent
shell shock among soldiers under
fire may result from experiments
on albino rats conducted by two
University of Pittsburg scientists.
They found that:
Rats fed on a diet rich in vita-
min B-l "barely blink an ey"
when a loud buzzer is sounded.
Rats fed on foods slightly de-
ficient in vitamins can be "knock-
ed cold" by the same noise.
o
FOOD FOR LONGER LIFE
Middle age is not too late to
start in order to increase your life
span. Some new diet facts, just
published by Cornell University
nutritionists show that even after
40 it may be possible to alter a
destiny which seemingly has been
fixed by early life habits.
There is one outstanding "vari-
able," a food factor which can
be changed with certainty of giv-
ing important results.
This variable is fatness. Hold-
ing down fatness definitely leng-
thens the lives of the middle-aged
an'mals. Letting them get fat
by eating as much as they want
shortens their lives.
o
HEAT PRESERVES MILK
It has been the general practice
to chill milk immediately after it
has been taken from the cow and
to- keep it refrigerated up to and
after the process of pasteuriza-
tion to prevent it from becoming
rancid. Investigations at the Uni-
versity of California by Drs. N. P.
Tarassuk and G. A. Richardson
have demonstrated that the best
way to prevent rancidity is to
keep the milk warm, between 30
and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, for
one to three hours.
o
DEBUNKING SPINACH
Some doubts of the value ot
spinach in the diet are raised by
recent experiments with rats and
tadpole*. Dr. Robert W. Briggs,
of McGill University, fed large
numbers of tadpoles th same diet
except that in one the vegetable
lenient was supplied by spinach
and in the other by lettuce. The
growth rate generally was nor-
mal, but autopsies on 252 or those
receiving spinach revealed that
127 had numerous large kidney
stones. Autopsies on seventy-
four receiving lettuce showed only
two such cases, and these stones
were very small.
o
CHEMICALS VS. DISEASE
Two new synthetic chemicals,
formerly found only in shark oils,
have been created and added to
th'e treatment of one of man's
most serious diseases.
The chemicals known techni-
cally as batyl and chimyl alcohols
arc terrific stimulators in the
production of white btocd cells,
those which eat disease germs, in
the marrow of bores. Without
these cells disease irerms run wild
in the boclv.

See Power Is Hub
Of Allied Cause
Sea Power is the hub upon which
the whole of the Allied cause revolves.
The Germans realize this just at>
much aa we do.
It is the main task of the Royal
Navy to protect the seaborne trade
without which we in Britain could
neither exist nor continue the war.
Much of our food comes from over-
sea; but our most important life-line
is undoubtedly represented by the con-
voys of merchantmen travelling
across the Atlantic with munitions,
aircraft and raw materials from
America.
The Army in the Middle East was
largely transported there over 13,000
mile route round the Cape of Good
Hope, and under the protection of
the Royal Navy. The triumphal ad-
vance of the army into Libya, the
disastrous defeats inflicted upon the
Italians, and the removal of the
threatened- invasion of Egypt, were
largely attributed to British Sea
Power. Sea Power also assisted the
Greek successes in Albania, for other-
wise Mussolini would have been able
to send troops to the Aogean. Sea
Power has also helped the Army's
more recent successes in Eritrea,
Italian Somaliand and Abyssinia.
It is wise to remember that no
troops can safely be sent abroad ex-
cept under the protection of the Navy,
and that the Royal Air Force, wher-
ever it may be, operates on petrol
carried by sea to its bases all over the
world.
The task O f the Navy is not merely
protective. Out warships are also
used offensively wherever there is a
chance for attack. Consider the re-
cent raid on the Lofoten Islands the
long series of naval engagements,
bombardments and operations In both

Welcome Thursday
---- column ----
Flesherton people were hosts to
"A" Company, G. & S. Foresters, on
Thursday evening of last week, while
the Company was on a training trek
through the Niagara peninsula and
back to- Owen Sound. Two platoons
spent the night in the Markdale arm-
ories and one platoon in the Flesher-
ton town hall. A dance was held in
the Fraternal Hall for the guests on
Thursday night and a large crowd
was present to make the boys feel at
home and enjoy themselves. Friday
morning the Company held a tactical
scheme at Markdale, made an attack
on the town and captured it from
enemy hands.
The following letter was received
on Tuesday from Pte. J. P. Tilt of
the Foresters' Intelligence office:
"The officers, non-commissioned offic-
ers and men of "A" Company, Grev
& Simcoe Foresters, wish to express
their appreciation to everyone who
helped arrange and put across the
very enjoyable evening we spent
there as we passed through on our
trek around the countryside. From
the comments of the men it is plain
to see that this was probably the best
time they had while they were out.
Therefore, we would like you to con-
vey to the people our appreciation of
the splendid time thov gave the
troops."

Baptist Minister Gave
tiis Farewell Sermon
---- column ----
The Rev. Fred Ashton preached hi*
farewell sermon in the Baptist.
church last Sunday from the text in
2nd Cor. 13; 11. A very large con-
gregation had assembled to hear his
last message, in which Mr. Ashton.
feelingly expressed his pratitude for
all the loyalty manifested toward
him and his wife durinjj the four
years of his ministry, not only from
his own people, but also from the
congregation of St. John's with their
ministers and the community at
large. It was with real sense of
thankfulness that the work of the
church had not only been splendidly-
maintained through the past four
years, but that everything in con-
nection with the church was in splen-
did condition and promised well for
successor's future, stated Mr. Ashton,
and he hoped that the church would
rally round the new minister and co-
operate with him in all work of the
church. Professor Parker 01 Mc-
Master University was the special
speaker at Rock Mills in the after-
noon, also at Flesherton at night.
This was the first visit of the Profes-
sor to Flesherton and he gave two
excellent messages, and also express-
ed his delight in visiting Flesherton-
Mr. Roy Langford sang at each ser-
vice throughout the da" in a ver-
effective manner and his solos were?
greatly appreciated. Mrs. HowartI

Red Cross Marks
Scene of Crime
---- column ----
Visitors in western uptown
Montreal often ask questions re-
.; ii -I'liu a big wood cross painted
red visible over the fence of the
Mot'v.-r Hous* of tha Order of th-
Grey Nuns. Traffic officials of
the Canadian National Railways
carried a query to Dr. W. H. Ath-
erton, authority on historic Mon-
treal, and he recounted a story
in explanation. In the time of
the French regime when Montreal
was beginning to extend beyond
the fortified walls, "la Chomin
<lu Roi" (The King's Road) strag-
gled along the edge of the mid-
town terrace about the present
line of Dorchester Street. At the
point where Guy street now in-
tersects, stood a farm house and
the farmer was credited with pos-
sessing a store of gold. A bandit
attempted to rob the farmer and
when the latter resisted, killed
the farmer, his wife and a daugh-
ter. Captured, French justice de-
creed that he should be hanged
and quartered, the body to swing
on the gibbet erected at the scene
of the crime. Afterwards a cross
was placed it the spot. Years
later when the first roads were
straightened, the cross was in the
centre of the thoroughfare, and
on request of the municipal auth-
orities the Grey Nuns agreed to
maintain in p.-rpetuity a cross to-
mark this page in the record of
the former French colony.

North To Alaska
Is Holiday Call
Color and Drama of Early
Days Are Still To Be Seen
There By the Traveller
---- column ----
Planning a holiday to Alaska
is a pleasant occupation which in
itself will provide delightful pro-
logue to the actual scenes of this
Northerly land. From the first,
the intending traveller is impres-
sed with the color and the drama
of the early days. The romance
of the geld rush period led to the
present development which has
proven the real value of what had
been considered a profitless folly
but which turned out to be one
of Nature's rich treasure houses.
It is not necessary to undertake
a lengthy course in the historic
before going to Alaska; once the
traveller has entered the awe in-
spiring fjcrds leading to the ports
of Alaska, the very majesty of
the country appeals to him and
soon he will be eager to learn all
that is possible of the territory
and neighboring Yukon across the
Canadian border.
It'* An Accessible Place
Alaska has a distant sound, but
it is a most accessible place. Rail-
way connections to Vancouver
are numerous and comfortable.
At Vancouver, principal city and
chief port of British Columbia,
handsome craft of the Canadian
National Railways, operate cruis-
es to Skagway and return. From

THE WAR WEE K Commentary on Current Events
---- column ----
CANADA, UNITED STATES
COMBINE WAR PROGRAMS
---- column ----
"It was agreed as a general
principle that In mobilizing the
resources of this continent
each country should provide
the other with the defence ar-
ticles It Is best able to produce,
and, above all, produce quickly,
and that production programs
should be co-ordinated to this
end." Joint statement issued
at Hyde Park, N.Y., by Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Prime Min-
ister King.
An agreement of momentous im-
portance in the history of thig con-
tinent and of vital concern to all
Canadians was last week reached
t Hyde Park, N.Y., by the chief
executive* of the United States and
Canada, under the terms of which
tiii> two largest countries ot the
New World merged their econo-
mies, to most practical purposes,
tor to production of war materials
tor British aid and defense of the
hemisphere.
Economies Merged
In brief, the agreement amount-
ed to: 1. An undertaking by the
United State to buy between $200,-
000,000 and $300.000,000 worth of
4efene and wax material from
Canad during the coming year, this
to help out Canada's unf.avora.ble
balance; 2. A further undertaking
oy the United States practically to
Include In the Leasts-lend arrange-
ment with Britain all unfinished
war material which Canada im-
ports from the United States and
re-exports or transfers to Britain,
this making current payments by
Canada unnecessary.
Total Union Inevitable?
Many and far-reaching would be
the results of such a pact. Numer-
ous thinking Canadians, taking tha
long-raaige view, saw in In the
agreement a big step toward the
ultimate union of the Dominion
with the United States Toronto's
late Goldwiu Smith's dream
brought to fruition. Total co-oper-
ation was sure to follow economic
and productive collaboration, they
averred.
But of more immediate conse-
quence would certainly be a vast
shipbuilding and armaments manu-
facturing boom in Canada. Indus-
trial leaders last week, estimated
that, with the United States now
needing many things of which Can-
ada has a surplus, an employment
*te.p-up of forty per cent might be
necessary, drawing rnoro women
Into industry anil more western
farmers off the land.
Over the Border
The foreign exchange situation
which for Canada had been grow-
ing increasingly critical was taken
care of by the agreement; oue of
the minor offshoots would be the
lifting of restrictions on travel to
the United States by r.itin/llan $Jtl-
tens.
Joint Defence
Two days previous to the Hyde
Park declaration had ome> the an-
nouncement from the Permanent
Joint. Defence Board of Canada and
the United States, that sfratcev
plans for the military and navnl

June, Peak Month
The question most commonly
d'scussel last week by Washington
officials was reported to be not
whether the United States would
so to wax but WHEN'. Preponder-
ance of authoritative opinion seem-
ed '.) bt two-Ui-one that the Unit-
ed States would get. Into belligerent
war. The time and incidents pre-
cipitating It were still uncertain.
.*onie guessed 30 days, some 60
duyg, and very few placed the date
any later. The mouth of June was
coming to be thought the peak
month of the war. If Britain could
hold on till then, United States'
weight would surely be able at
that time to help torn the tide.
No Slackening
There was a certain amount of
feeling In the T'nlted States last
week following the Allied defeat
---- column ----
In the Balkans that shipment of
American war materials to Bri-
tain' might drop off if the admin-
istration believed itself backing a
losing cause. But to scotch this
wave of rumor, President Roose-
velt at his press conference declar-
ed that the Axis victory in the Bai-
kans neither would win the war for
Hitler and xiussolial nor resuit in
any slackening on Lease-Lend de-
liveries.
* * #
Semi-Final Round
That the defeat In Greece wa
not decisive was the opiulon held
by most military experts on thig
continent. Major Georg3 Fielding
Eliot pointed out that the setbacks
in the eastern Mediterranean by
no means meant that Britain was
losing the war; for the Germans to
win, he said, the British Isles must
be conquered. Associated Press'
Dwltt Mackenzie pointed out once
again that the Battle of the Bal-
kans was only a phase important
but still far from decisive of the
general conflict. Should Hitler be-
come master of the entire Mediter-
ranean, he postulated, he would
only have copped off the semi-final
round of the contest with the Batt'.e
of Britain still to be won.
Decision In Atlantic
Writing from Washington, Kirke
L. Simpson, military expert also
with the Associated Press, declared
that it was in the Atlantic that the
war would still be lost or won. And
"provided British morale can en-
dure the strain," he said, "there i
nothing definite to imply that tht*
crisis in the Atlantic will come this
year." Of the same mind apparent-
ly was Prime Minister Churchill
when lie said last week that Bri-
tain was in for an "undoubtedly
long and formidable war."
. But no one really could prophesy
with truth what would happen be-
fore the end of 1941. Russia and
Germany might ?o to war and the
entire world picture would be
changed.

Six-Nation Pact?
Things appeared to be shaving
up according to a new pattern in
the Far East last week, if the sen-
sational reports of the> Osaka i Ja-
pan) MainichI were to be credited
with any degree of correctness.
This newspaper stated that a mil-
itary and naval pact had been con-
cluded between six nations Unit-
ed States, Britain. China, British
India, Australia and the Nether-
lands East Indies which pooled
their entire military and material
resources in the Far East for the

fenses a.id opposiug Japan's south-
ward advance, while protecting the>
communication lines linking South
Africa, British India. Singapore,
Hong Konir, M.inila. Australia and
the United States.
Under this pact, which this col-
umn believes to be largely authen-
tic, Sir Robert Brooke-Popham,
Commander-in-chief of the British
Forces In the Far East, is su-piwsed
to assume the supreme command
of the combined land and ah- forces,
while Admiral Thomas Hart, Com-
manrter-ln-Chlef of the American

Russia and Germany
The same paper reported anoth-
er sensational, if true, development.
According to it, Russia was de-
manding the right to ocupy the
northern Provinces of [ran (Per-
sia) in order :o protect the Baku
oil fields, as well as to obtain a
possible outlet on the Persian Gulf
iu the event of a German drive to
the Dardanelle-s, and that to back

"UP AT THE VILLA"
Bjr W. Somerset Maugham
---- column ----
This short novel of a beautiful
woman's indiscretion and its ef-
fect on the lives of three men who
love her presents as enthralling; a
situation as Somerset Maugham
has ever created. It is the dra-
matic story of Mary Panton, a
widow at thirty, who finds herself
in a situation which threatens to
jeopardize her future life and
happiness.
The author of "The Letter"
and "Of Human Bondage," Som-
erset Maugham is the dean of liv-
ing novelists; the clarity of his
style, the perfection of his form,
the sublety of his thought, havt
made him an international figure
in the world of literature. "Up
at the Villa," so full of his shrewd
observation of the human animal
under stress, is a fine example of
this brilliant writer's mastery of
his craft.
The title is borrowed from a
poem by Robert Browning.

fit. Catharines, April 24 Col-
lapse of French and Italian trade
with British countries as a result
of the war promises to bring some
beneficial results to one branch of
Canadian agriculture, with na-
tive-grown grapes finding a
greater use in the production of
vermouth. Supplies of Italian and
French vermouth have been ex-
hausted and already Ontario ver-
mouth has taken their place in
government stores throughout at
least one province.
Long-sighted wine producers in
Canada, it is stated, began the
purchase of heavier quantities of
the compound of herbs from which
Italian and French producers
made their vermouth. For years
a small quantity of vermouth had
been produced in Canada, with
the result that considerable ex-
perience had been gained long
before the need for increased
quantities was felt. As a result,
large stocks of the herbs had been
gathered in Canada, and before
the ilemand arose Ontario produc-
ers had begun production of extra
supplies.
Vermouth is produced from
SWOI-T ir dry wines, each native to
Italy and France respectively.
Because Canadian grape-growers,
most!;.- In Ontario, produce grapes
from which both types of wines
are made. Ontario growers stand
ii nefit from the increased pro-
duction of vermouth. Excellence

} The Press And The
i Advertiser
I
I The relationship between the newg-
P..IH-I- and its advertisers is as ini-
R riant to the newspaper reader as
is to the publisher. Newspapers
i' sometimes unfairly accused of
feeing subservient to the advertisers
Who provide the revenue upon which
the newspaper exists. This erroneous
Impression has been feathered because
the average person knows that the
newspaper must hare advertising; to
exist, and therefore if he happens to
be of a suspicious turn of mind, he
concludes that the advertiser must Bet
the policy of the newspaper.
Not only is such a suggestion un-
true, but it is unfair both bo the news-
paper and to the advertiser. Prac-
tically every publisher will tell you
that few merchants ever attempt to
dictate the policy of the newspaper.
They must express opposition to
some stand the newsppier has taken,
but few would go so far as to threat-
CD the newspaper with the withdraw-
al at business, if that policy was not
changed to conform with the wishes
of Hie advertiser. The successful
Merdiant is usually ucesful be-
O.TIM he is an honourable man, and
fcw would stoop to the level of
threatening a newspaper because its
publisher had different ideas on a
ftnm question than the advertiser.
The relationship between the ad-
vertiser and the newspaper is simil-
ar to that which exists between a
merchant and his customer, only ir
tWs case the publisher is the mer-
eant and the advertiser the customer.
The advertiser purchases space in the
newspaper because he has a story to
tell the readers of the rmner. He
tises advertising as a legitimate
Weans of drawing custom to his
tore. If the newspaper continues
to nrovlde the service required and
adequate returns for the investment,
the merchant continues to advertise.
'When he feels he is not petting that
Talue he oeases to advertise. That, too
IF the relationship which exists be-
tween any other merchant and hi?
customer. So long as the customer
ferls he is getting good value and
tervicp from the store, he continues
to be a customer. When value and
Service cease he takes his trade else;
jrher*.
That, very simple, is the relation-
Hi ip between the publisher and the
advertiser. Any suggestion that the
policy of the newspaper is dictated
py tne advertiser Is a slander on
---- column ----
both newspaper and merchant. Best
proof that the advertisers do not
dictate policy is the fact that it would
be almost impossible to find a group
of merchants in any community
whose ideas could be so identical that
they could formulate the policy of
any newspaper.

CRUCIAL TESTING TIME
The crucial testing time for Can-
adians is drawing closer and closer.
It won't be long now before most citi-
zens physical sacrifices far beyond
and physical sacrifices far beyond
that asked for up to this moment.
Previously Canadians have been asked
to tighten their belts, to roll un their
sleeves. Soon, the formality of a re-
quest willbe dispensed with. The
struggle for self-preservation will
loom so big that the course of the
average person will be obvious.
None who knows the basic charac-
ter of a Canadian doubts that he will
fail in the time of crisis. When the
father and the mother and the grown
up children wholly realize that they
must do certain things to save the
home from destruction, no job, no
sacrifice will seem too big.

Silence sits on hor mighty throne
And patiently waits her hour to

Illumed by an unseen, piercine; ray;
Nature's pevrless choir awak'ning
Sine 1 their matins to a new horn
day.
The twinkling sturs put our their

And the moon, her golden dress
she sheds.

With its balmy scent from flower-
isg beds.
The morning mist which him so
still
Slowly lifts, ;uul niigbtv shadows

Like a sphere of eternal fire,
TKt- rrimarin sun creeps into the

The lake is calm from sho> to shore,
A Silv'ry mirror in forest shade
The crystal, sparkling dcwdropg cling,
Like diamonds to every leaf and

Fair Nature lifts her murky robe
And bathes the world with a rosy

living and functions. We can suggest two ways
of economy, namely: by delivering your cream to
the creamery and receiving 1 cent per pound fat
over truck price, and also making use of our cold
storage meat lockers, by freezing your own meat,
which is a big saving on your cost of living.
MEAT STORAGE
A $5.00 box for a year w hold approximately
220 to 25ft lb. meat and you may refill the Box
often as you wish. You may also place meat in
storage at the rate of P/ 2 c per Ib.
; On account of the new government egg regulations
] we must take more time in grading eggs. We are
; asking you to co-operate with us by bringing your
eggs earlier during the day to avoid congestion dur-
ing open wight. The creamery will remain open each
Wednesday and Saturday night during the summer
NOW IS THE TIME THAT THE STORING
OF MEAT SHOULD BE IN FULL
PROGRESS.
Call in to ee us about the storage.

SYNOPSIS
The Harry C. Thoma* family,
father, mother and three daugh-
ter*, is the typical American fam-
ily In a town of about 15,000 popu-
lation. Harriet, aged nine, the
youngest, is independent and ven-
turesome with an enormous appe-
tite for ice cream. She overhears
her sister Mary rehearsing, in front
of the bathroom mirrorr her reply
to a prospective proposal of mar-
riage, and of course spills the beans
to her mother. Listening at the
.hot air register upstairs, Harriet
everhears her parents' conversa-
tion on the subject of Mary and
her two rival beaux Ted Foster
nd Jim Reynolds, both of whom
are salesmen at the Hellman Auto
Agency. Harriet calls up each beau
In turn and makes him a business
proposition; in exchange for ice
cream to be brought to her that
evening, she tells that Mary has
spent an hour before her mirror,
primping in case a certain young
man should happen to call that
evening.

CHAPTER TWO
Whui Coronf-t sedan parked
iii front of the Thomas home that
evening, a basket lowered from an
upstairs window hit the caller on
the In-, iii as lie climbed tho nte.ps.
"PssC" whi-pi-i-id Harriet. ''Put
ray ice cn-iim in the basket."
It wa the ilismayi-d voice of
Jim Reynolds that answered. "I'm
sorry. I'll send you two gallons to-
morrow."
The door opened and Mr. Thorn-
H addrefised the caller Jovially:
"Well, well! Jim Reynolds. This
to a surprise. Mary, here's Jim."
"Dad. don't you ever welcome
wiyliody without saying this a
surprise?"
"Not Jim Reynolds I don't. Nor
Ted Foster. \Vh**n it's Jim I'm isur-
prle<l that It's not Ted -- and
when it's Ted I'm surprised that
it's not Jlru. Does that answer your
question?"
"I'm sorry I asked," responded
Mary. "Como in, Jim."
Another Coronet sedan |>iikl
by the sidewalk. Again the banket
was lowi-red and dangled In front
of the e<-i>iid caller.
"Ted! Put the Ire cream In the
baket." -
"Sorry, they were all out of pla-

Mr Thomas, who had been at-
traced by voices outside the door,
stepped Into view.
"To bed, young lady! When I
raised your allowance you were to
supply your own ice cream."
"If you asked me,-" said Harriet
plaintively, "I think this is a dirty
trU-k to play on a child!" She slam-
med the window shut.
"Well, well, Te<l. This is a sur-
prise. Come on In."
Ted and Jim were not very much
surprised at encountering each
other in the Thomas living room,
but there was no cordiality in tho
civilities they exchanged. Mr.
Thomas was trying to help enter-
tain the two guests, when his wife
called him upstairs. He entered the
bed room hitching/up his trousers.
"It looks like Mary has made-
up her mind," said Mrs. Thomas.
"You're wrong. Chief. No girl
has two boys around when her
mind's made up unless she's
thinking of bigamy."
Is it necessary to keep hauling
at your pants, Harry?"
"It is if I want to keep my under
wear up. There's no buttons on
them. Mary's not going to get any
proposal with both Ted and Jim
down there."
"So you're going down to make
It three!"
"Nil, I'm going down to maK>- it
on-." t
Mary and Her Beaux
Mary and her beaux were ex-
changing trivialities when her fath-
er re-entered. He introduced the
subject of drawers with missing
buttons and at Mary's protest, came
fo the point.
"All right, Mary. I can talk about
other things. Jim, what does a
sedan like the two outside sell
for?"
"Why. for JSi'-'.'iS f.o.b. Detroit."
Mr. Thomas allowed sudden In-
terest to appear In his voice. "Run
me around the block in one . . Oh,
i-onie on, Jim. this is biwiiipse."
Jim arose nicely to the halt.
"Business Is nine to six for any-
body but your father, Mary. Be
vight back."
A moment of i-niburrassr-d sil-
now followed the departure of Mr.
Thomas and Jim.
"Mary," said Ted.
"Yen?"
"Do ... do yon like steak?"
"Do I like what?" Mary all but
Rasped.
"Steak. S-t-e-a-k. Do you like
blink?"
"No. Not particularly. Why?"
"I ... I was just wondering,"
nald Ted In a squelched voice. After
a silence he began again: "Mary."
"Yes?"
"Thin is a very nice swing."
"It's ajl right," she answered In-
differently.
"No. This IK a special swing. A
fellow rould do a lot worsw than
sipord Ills whole life on swing
like this."
"Hill win-re would you eal?"
"I ... I meant It would bo awful-
ly nire to be on t.hls swinR wh( n-
,-vi i- yon are In It."
"I wish . . . You know what I
wish Mary?"
"What, Ted?" Her voice was mi-
eoiiraglng. but liis spirit quailed.
"Well, iih . . Ymi think li's gel-
lillK' lute?"
"No. Ted. Wii.il were you u<>inu
to -ay?"
Ted Proposes
"I tfiie-s 11 lot of marriages don't
MI, r, >i-d nowadays."
"I grefs H |.it of iiiiii-i-iaRts didn't
QCMed In the "'d days either."
"Take me, for Instance, Mary.
As a husband I can't sre myself
for dust. Anvbodj who'd marry mo
would be making a terriiblo mis-
lake. If I ever asked n girl mid
she wouldn't marry me, she'd hr
right."
"If n nirl married you and
watm'l happy, she'd havo mostly
herself to bbime."
Thai bolstered Ted's coiir.i;-,e.
".Mnry. I love yon and wiml In

"1 do!" said Mary instantly.
"Whal?" said Ted. tiikeii aback.
"Vi K 'I' 1 'I- hon-sily and truly."

time. Then he Mnlled: "What's on
your iiiiud?"
"I . . I just thought we'd have a
little chat."
Mr. Thomas made further efforts
to put Ted at his ease, and at
loi:gth Ted blurted out: "I ... 1
guess it's kind of a. tturprieti to
you Mr. Thomas, iny wanting to
talk to you like this. Well, the
reason I came here , . . Mr. Thom-
as, I'd like ; i.j*rry your daugh-
ter."
Mr. Thomas was extreme ly sur-
prised. "Let me get this straight.
Did you say you wanted to marry
my daughter?"
"I sup-pose It may sound a little
funny to you, my wanting to mar-
ry Mary I mean, I guess anybody
that didn't want to marry Mary
would be crazy. Only . . ."
"Are you by any chance in love
with her, young man?"
"Yes, sir."
"Eavesdropping, Mary?"
"And is she In love with you?"
"I ... I think so."
"Ma.ybe we'd better find out for
sure. Mary!" Instantly the door
was opened. "Mary, have you been
eavesdropping?"
"Yes. father."
"Well, here's a big situation I
need your advice about. This young
man says . . . but what am I telling
you for? You heard wjiat he said."
"Isn't hp Vondfrful, Dad?" said
Mary, going to Ted and taking
his hand.
"Well, what do you want me to
do. Mary? Dismiss the young man
with a reprimand. Notify his near-
est relatives and
"No, I think I'll marry him, be-
cause I'm in love with him."
"Okay. Bless you, my children,"
said Mr. Thomas sincerely and left
them together.
After an interval: "Ted, what
will your mother say?"
"Anybody that didn't want me
to love you would be crazy."
"Xo mother ever thinks a girl
Is good enough for her only san."
"Not my mother! I'm going to
tell her atbout us tonight."
There w;.s one subject th.it Mary
iil'i'roached gingerly. "Some people
nnybe won't think our Retting mar-
ried Is tnch a wonderful idea. Ted,
wi-:v you . . . were you ever en-
gaRi-d to An-.isiasia Atherton?"
"Xo. I never asked Anastasia to
marry me. Why. Mary?"
"I wanted to be sure you weren't
still a little bit in love with her."
"I'm not. Not even a little bit . ."
Mary said quickly: "I don't want
to know any more! \Yr'vt brought
that subject out in the open and
can dismiss It once and for all.
Cood nlnht, Ted."
"flood night. Mary."
"I'm Engaaed!"
As Mary entered the house, Ev-
elyn, a bathrobe over her night-
gown, exclaimed; "Mary! I've been
waiting sinco 10.30! You're en-
gaged!"
Still a bit dazed. Mary replied.
"I guess ... 1 guess I am. I'm . . .
I'm engaged!"
I,i^hls were flashed on and Har-
riet lu her high-necked, long sleev-
ed nightgown, flashed down the
stairs greatly excl'.ed. She grabbed
Mary.
"I listened at the window! I Hilnk
I caught pneumonia, but it's worth
it!" Tears camn into the young
girl's eyes. "H was the most beau-
tiful thing 1-ever heard!"

A Few Flowers
Liven Up Room
Here Are Some Simple Ways
v of Doing Flower Arrange-
ments That Will Brighten
Your Home
A few flowers in a simple vase
do wonders for a room. They can
add the spot of color, the light
touch, the centre of attractiou
which the room, no niatter how
well arranged, may lack.
LEAVES OX TULIPS
For brightening ui> living rooms,
this is a grand spring arrangement
for a piano or table. It Is done
with one dozen tulips.
You will want another holder for
this and a vase abou 10 inches high.
Do not 'take tho leaves off the tu-
lips. They are wed as foliage and
give a color contrast.
Be sure to do your arraug!:ig
before you put your flowers in the
vase. Xlne of the tulips should be
cut to vary gracefully in height
above the vase, and the remaining
three at differeut heights inside.
Open the petals of the lower flow-
ers. That is a professional touch
to cover the' holder, add color and
give an artistic effect.
An additional hint about tulips
to keep them frosh overnight, wrap
the-m in wet ncw-vaptr. put them
back in water, and then place them
iu a cool room.

Many Are The
Services of Salt
Throw s:-.!t on the soot that has

LESSON V
THE CHURCH ENLARGING
ITS FELLOWSHIP Act. 8
PRINTED TEXT
Act. 8:1-8, 14-17, 25
GOLDEN TEXT. They there-
fore tlil were tcattered abroad
went about preaching the word.
Acts 8:4.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time. A.D. 36.
Place. Samaria a the region
in Palestine lying between Judaea
and Galilee; Gaza was an old
city of the Philistines fifty milei
southwest of Jerusalem; Aiotui
was thirty miles north of Gaza,
and Qaesarea, a coastal city, was
located midway between Joppa
and Tyre.
This lessor, is helpful to as in
the study of the consequences of
persecution in the Christian
church, namely, an even greater
dissemination of the Gospel than
was taking place before the per-
secution arose.
Saul the Periecutor
Acts 8:1. "And Saul was con-
senting unto his death. And
L-.ere arose on that day a great
persecution against the church
which waj ir. Jerusalem; and they
were all scattered abroad through-
out the region; of Judaea and Sa-
maria, except the apostles. 2.
And devout ir.en buried Stephen,
and made great lamentation over
him. 3. But Saul laid waste the
church, entering into every house,
and dragging men and women
committed them to prison. 4.
They therefore that were scat-
tered abroad wer.t about preach-
ing the word."
After the death and burial of
Stephen, the persecution still rag-
ed in Jerusalem. That temporary
protection which had been ex-
tended to the rising sect by such
men as Gamaliel was now at an
end. Pharisees and Sadducees
priests and people alike, indulged
in the most violent and ungovern-
able fury. The eminent and ac-
tive agent in this persecution was
Saul (who here conies for the
first time upon the stage of New
Testament history ) : There ar
strong grounds for believing that,
if he was not a member of the
Sanhedrin at the time of St.
Stephen's death, he was elected
into that powerful senate soon
after; possibly as a reward for
the zeal he had Shown against the
heretic doing. Before we. have
ruad much further in the book of
Acte, we will find that he, who is
now the greatest persecutor of
:iie early Church, Saul, will be-
come the greatest preacher of the
Gospel of the grace of God which
the ancient world ever knew. Thus
is God able to work miracles with-
in the hearts of men, and to
mightily deliver His church in a
time of great distress.
The Gotpel in Samaria
5. "And Philip went down to
ihe city of Sanmia, and proclaim-
ed unto. them the Christ." Sa-
maria was populated by a nation
of people utterly despised by the
Jews, and equally despising their
Jewish neighbors semi-Jews we
might call them, who held rigidly
to the traditions and laws of the
Pentateuch, who wore looking for
the Messiah. A Jew considered
himself contaminated even to go
through the country of Samaria.
But the love of God through
Christ in Philip'* heart had given
him a love for all men every-
where. Prejudices disappeared.
I \\> need this today as much as it
was needed then). Philip, the.
evangelist, must not be confused
with Philip, one of the Twelve
Apostles. G. "And the multi-
tudes gave heed with one accord
unto the things that were spoken
by Philip, when they heard, and
saw the signs which he did. 7.
For from many of those that had
unclean spirits, they came out,
crying with a loud voice: and
many that wore palsied, and that
were lame, were healed. 8. And
there was much joy in that city."
Philip proclaimed as a herald
the Messiahship of Christ. He
preached also as an evangelist the
good news of the Kingdom of
(Jod, and of the name of Jesus.
Undoubtedly Philip preached from
the Old Testament, for surely no
New Testament book had yet been
wriiten, but in his preaching he
continually pointed to the Mes-
siah, not the Messiah who 113
still to come, but the Messiah who
had already come, fulfilling th
prophecies that spoke of Him. In
preaching- Christ, he preached
Jesus as the Messiah fur whom
all Jews and Samaritans were
looking.
Receiving the Holy Spirit
14. ''Now when the apostles that
wre at Jerusalem hoard that Sa-
maria had received the word of
Gd, they sent unto them Voter
aid John." We find this sum*

ARTICLE No. 9
Probably the best garden soil
for vegetables, flowers, grass,
and most shrubs too, is a good
loam. This is a soil that is not
all clay or all sand. It is really
a mixture of both, plus a lot of
humus, or rotted vegetable mater-
ial like leaf mould. Now, of
course, one does no: find this
ideal soil everywhere but it u
possible to create it out o? almos:
anything in Canada.
Hey Soil
Heavy soil, for instance, can be
loosened permanently by the
spading or plowing in of some
well-rotted strawy manure or
lacking this vegetable growth such
as clover, quickly grown oats or
even weeds. In very small gar-
dens it is possible to secure s
load or two of sand, or loose
black leaf mould. This will also
help to loosen the heavy clay and
make it easily worked. Just
plain cultivation alone will help.
The beginner with a brand new
piece of raw clay should no: get
discouraged. Such soil is always
hardest to work a: first, fclach
year will find the job simpler,
the soil improved.
Sandy Soil
Light, sandy soils are a. * ayi
greatly benefitted by the addition
o: strawy manure or black loam.
The incorporation of vegetable
matter such as straw and weeds
or clover will add humus to the
sand and make it hold moiscure
better and give it a more desir-
able body.
Take Your Time
Because we have :ong hours of
sunlight in Spring and Summer,
it really does not matter then if
our garden goes in late, as once
growth starts it is rapid. Garden
beginners are advised to have pa-
tience. There is no need for rush-
ing, in fact there are very good
reasons againn such a course.
Real growth with most vege-
tables does not et underway until
the weather and soil begin ta
warm. There are. some except-
ions, of ccurse. Lettuce, sp
peas, nursery stock, should be
planted as soon as possible as a'.l
like cool weather.
But for the medium hardy type
of vegetable things like beans,
beets, corn and tomatoes there
is no advantage in sowing too
soon. They will make little ;;
in any case until the soil really
turns warm.

Grey County To Share
Cost of Snow Plowing
At the recent session of Grey
Bounty Council the question of snow
plowing county roads was under dis-
cussion several time'. At the closing
sitting on Saturda- morning the
County Council put their seal of ap-
proval on a motion that snow plow-
ing be undertaken in 1941-42 to the
extent of paying 25% of the cost
of plowing in those communities de-
sirous of having the work done and
willing to raise 25% of te cost
themselves. The 50% balance is sub-
sidized by the provincial government.
Snow ploughing, long a bone of
contention within the county, has
been the subject of repeated argu-
ments in County Council. During
the past two "y ears > snow clubs have
been organized throughout the
country, in districts desiring of a
winter outlet. The<e have raised one
half of the cost of the work by sub-
scription, the other half paid by
government subsidy. On Saturday,
the motion that the count" assume a
quarter of this cost was set forward
bv Reeve Morton Sayers of Osprey
Township, and after some discussion,
was approved. The ma.ioritv of com-
munities were in favour of the idea
although some, representing com-
munities where winter-bound roads
present no particular hardship, were
against the county making arv com-
mitment.
Snow clubs or municipalities de-
sirous of havine this work done and
willing to abide by the agreement of
raising 25% of the cost of the work,
will be required to have estimates of
the amount of road to be kept onen
in the Bounty enginoei 's office before

COUNCIL SPONSORS
BIG TOURIST SCHEME
y
Flesherton Village Council decided
at a meeting of the Council Tuesday
evening to assist in the great work
of attracting tourists from tht
United States to Ontario thi; year,
so that the United States dollars
will assist Canada in paving part of
her war debt to that country. There
are no bars to travel in Ontario or
Canada and the American tourist
can be assured of splendid time when!
he comes with no trouble in either
coming into the country or returning
to their home land. The Council is
appointing a committee to work with
the business men in advancing the
cause. American tourist business,
means a great thing for Can-
ada, and while the Federal and
Provincial Governments are spending
large sums of money advertising
Canad in the United States, their
appeal can only be a general one. It
remains for smaller centres to
make a personal appeal and have
the old boy or girl, resident in the
United States, come back to their
native homes at a certain date and
visit their old homes and familar
surroundings.
Mr. A. H. Wilford of Toronto, the
Provincial organizer, interviewed the
Council Tuesday evening and la!3
the proposition before them, and
they were enthusiastic over .the
possibilities of the scheme.

Entires For Farm And \
Home Improvement
Contest Number 26
---- column ----
The third Farm and Home Im-
provement Contest to be sponsored
by Wareham Junior Institute and
Junior Farmers, in co-operation with
"Farmers' Magazine," is now well
under way. The committee in charts
comprises Mrs. W. E. Inkster
Cliitford Allen and Bruce Mc-
Cutcheon, the last named also being
secretary.
With 26 contestants this year, the
judging is definitely an arduous
task. Nevertheless, Mrs. H. M.
Bailey of Dundalk, Rev. Keith Mc-
Millan of Flesherton ard Mr. Geo.
W. Ross of Maxwell, Taciously con-
sented to act in the capacity of
judges. It had been intended that
the preliminary judging should have
been done the last of November,
but adverse weather conditions rend-
ered this impossible, and the judges
made their tour of inspection of the
homes entered on April 24th and
April 29th, However, improvements
made since entries were tiled in No-
vember are bein-- credited !n the
contest.
The entrants are: Clifford Allen,
David Armour, Henry Arnott, Fred
Barber, Geoge Barnet, Lome Champ,
Thomas Blakey, Oliver Cornell,
Frank Eagles, Howard Gordon, Daw-
son Gordon, Howard Grummett,
John Hargrave, Robert Hill, Wilfred
Inkster, William Jtohnson, John
Lougheed, Wm. McCutcheon, Wm.
McMillan, Wilfred McNally, Cecil
Meldrum, Wm. Russell, Ross Stev-
ens, Fred Weatherall, Arthur Wil-
son, and Geo. Young.
It is interesting to note that 16 of
the entries are within two and a
half miles of Wareham corner, an
area in which there .-ere but six
entries least year. This would seem
fair indication of the popularity of
these Home Improvement Contests.
Indeed, there are eight contestants
within one and three-quarter miles
on the Third Line, Osprey, only two
of whom ever entered the contest
before.
It is realized that the shortage of
help on the farm may prevent the
carryin,' out of many much-desired
improvements, yet it is hoped that
this may not prove too serious a
handicap, but that very definite im-
provements may be accomplished.
These need not be costly, in terms
of money, as the planting of trees,
shrubs and flowers, the cleaning up
of rubbish or weed-infested corners,
improving of lanes, gateways or
buildings, the whitewashing of
stables, or the application of naint
<. /en around windows and doors, can
result in a very marked change of
appearance. True, all cannot win the
first prize, nor even tenth, yet if the
contest results in each of these rural
homes becoming a greater source of
pride and satisfaction, not only to
the members of the family, but te
the community at large, it will sure
'y be an effort well wortk while.

Notes: This age is one of celebra-
I tions. Scarcely a week passes with-
out its "observance" an anniversary
of something or other. In the great
list, however, none has a more uni-
versal appeal than "MOTHER'S
DAY.'* which falls on Sunday next.
It is not too much that for one day
in the whole year the thoughts of
mankind should turn towards that
loving personality who taught the
lisping tongue to speak and build so
many castles in the air for those who
are carrying to-day the burdens of
life for themselves.
A special program betfitting the
occasion, will be followed in all our
churches on Surday. Special remem-
brance will be given to all mothers,
and the choirs will render many of
the old songs that are partiaularly
suitable to the day. We invite you
to attend the services of this day,
either in honour of or in memory of
your mother.

Salonika Is described by an an-
oient writer as, "The covered city
crouching on the side of a hill and
touching tlie sea with her feet,"
nays Ernest D. McCurry in the Kan-
sas City Star.
"THESSALONICA"
This second city of Greece was
of little importance until Klug Cas-
sandra of the Macedonian line took
possession of it, and re-trained It
"Thessalouica" in honour of his
wif t >, the daughter of Philip, of
Mafn!on and sister of Alexander
the (.ireat. It was called "Salonique"
by th French, but the Gre-eks, in
the Interest of brevity called it
"Salonica" which In moilorn times
has been changed to "Salonika."

CITY OF THE AGES
This city on the shore of th*
Aegean Sea is a veritable city of
the ages, aud so ancient that Uu
time of ito beginning la loot in
obscurity.
It was the second stopping plac*
of the Apostle Paul, who in re-
sponse to a call which had come to
him in a night vision, crossed the
Aegean Set and landed In this city.
Late? from Corinth in 54 A.D., he
wrote the first of his many 'ettera
to the church which he had found-
ed at Thessalonlca.
MODERN SALONIKA
The city of Salonika is a modern
Babel, not only of languages, but
also of races and religions, cus-
toms and now German by occupa-
tion, its population Is predominant-
ly Turkish, with the Jews ranking
second, and the Greeks themselves
a poor third.

LESSON VI
THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE
HOME REGARDING BEVER-
AGE ALCOHOL
Deut. 6:4-7; Jar. 35:5-10
GOLDEN TEXT Train up .
child la th wy h should go,
And even when h I* old ha will
not depart from it. Prov. 22:6.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Tim* The book of Deuteron-
omy waa written somewhere be-
tween 1450 and 1500 B.C. The
particular chapter here quoted
from the book of Jeremiah waa
probably composed about 604 B.C.
Place The entire book of Deu-
teronomy is devoted to truth re-
vealed to Israel while she was
wandering for forty years in the
wilderness.
Tha On. Tru God
Dout. 6:4. "Rear, O Israel :
Jehovah our God la one Jehovah."
This declaration asserts that the
Lord God of I.-iratl alone is
Jehovah tiie absolute, uncaused
God; He who had by Hi*
election of them made Him-
self known to Israel. 5. "And
thou shalt love Jehovah thy God
with all thy heart, and with all
thy soul, and with all thy might."
Now, If there be any single attri-
bute hi which the moral character
of the Supreme attains to unity,
that attribute is His love. The
characteristic attitude assumed by
Jehovah in Old and New Testa-
ment revelation, and particularly
in the Gospel, is this of a Saviour
from every evil. Well, let that be
the rekHonship under which we
have learned to welcome, em-
brace, and confide in God through
Jesus Christ; and we shall find
that we have welcome, pure
and boundless love. Those words
of Deuteronomy which our Lord
recited to the scribe and which,
they say, every Jew was expected
to recite to himself morning and
evening at his devotions, form a
most penetrating commentary on
the First Law in the Decalogue;
and you see how they tax lang-
uage to express totality of dedi-
cation on our part to this love of
God. Every part of every man,
and the whole of every part, it
to be filled with love.
Teach Unto Your Children
6. "And these words, which I
command thee this day, shall be
upon thy heart. 7. And thou
shalt teach them diligently unto
thy children, and shalt talk of
them when thou sittest in thy
house, and when thou walkest by
the way, and when thou liest
down, and when thou risest up."
Here Is a religion which coven
the whole day, which belongs to
very attitude of man. The en-
trance of Divine truth into the
mind and heart, the formation of
habit and the training of charac-
ter, these are not attained by sud-
den and isolated efforts, but by
regular and unceasing repetition.
This ia the law of all growth in
nature, and of this law God seeks
to make use in the kingdom of
grace, in dependence upon and
iubsrvient to the power of the
Holy Spirit.
Tha Loyal Rechabitet
The founder of the fraternity
of Rechabites ("Son of Kechab"
may mean "son of the chariot"
or "disciple of the great proph-
et") was Jonadab who appears
as the ally of Jehu in the over-
throw of the house of Ahab. From
I Chron. 2:55 it appears that the
house of Rcrhab belonged to the
Kenites who had joined the Israel-
ites on their exodus from Egypt,
and had settled In their lands, re-
taining many of the old habits of
patriarchal life.
Jeremiah 35:5. "And I set be-
fore the sons of the house of the
Rechabites bowls full of wine,
and cups; and I said unto them,
Drink ye wine."
It la not said that Jeremiah de-
liberately attempted to seduce
these Rechabites to lead them in-
to some sin. That is not the
point. Either Jeremiah urged
these people to break their former
vows only that, knowing they
would stedfastly refuse to do so,
he might have a powerful illus-
tration by which to rebuke the
more easily tempted Israelites
who were of weaker stuff; or, he
may have wanted to persuade
these Rechabites to more closely
identify themselves with the Is-
raelites living in Jerusalem, and
to give up their severe customs
which kept them separate from all
their nearby neighbors. They are
not rebuked for their Stand but
are really commended.
"We Will Drink No Wine"
6. "But they snid, We will
drink no wine; for Jonadab the
ion of Kechab, our father, com-
manded us, snying, Ye shall drink
no wine, neither ye, nor your sons,
for ever: 7. neither shall ye
build house, nor sow seed, nor
plant vineyard, nor have any; but
all your days yc shall dwell in
tents; that yc may live irany days
in the land wherein ye sojourn.
8. And we have obeyed the \oice
of Jonadab the son of Rechab,
our father, in all that he charged
ft, to drink BO wine all our days,

for us to dwell in; neither have
we vineyard, nor field, nor seed:
10. but we have dwelt In tents,
and have obeyed, and done ac-
cording to all that Jonadab our
father commanded us."
The Force of Example
This lesson has primarily to do
with the teaching and practice of
temperance in the home. It is
strongly suggested that if par-
ents will live wholesome, happy,
sincere Christian lives before their
children, being exceedingly care-
ful in thought and in act to main-
tain the practice of constant ab-
stinence from intoxicating bever-
ages, the children themselves will
adopt some of these convictions.
This we believe is the best way
to approach the problem.

Amateur Knitter?
It is often difficult to gather
the top of a knitted skirt to fit
th waist elastic properly. First
measure the elastic firmly round
the waist and join end?, then
stretch this over a chair back
which is the same width as the
top of the knitted skirt and seam
the knitting to the elastic with
matching wool or silk. When re-
moved from the chair the skirt
will have even fullness and will
stretch to the right hip measure-
ments when it is being pulled on.

WHAT CANADA'S DOING
Allister Grosart, who has travel-

ment of Information's official
broadcast observer, will give the
first of his impressions of Can-
ada at work on the home front
when he speaks from Toronto to
listeners of the CBC National
Network on Friday. May 9th, at
7.30 p.m. E.D.S.T. Mr. Grosart,
a former Toronto newspaperman,
has seen everything from patrol
operations up the Pacific coast to
the voluntary war efforts of Can-
ada's foreign-born citizens. He
has just concluded the second leg
of his observation trip across Can-
ada with a tour of the Maritime

ACCURATE ANALYST
Canada's best news analyst,
Dr. E. T. Salmon from the Mc-
Master University staff, rang the
bell again on the Balkan cam-
paign. Dr. Salmon worked in
the Balkans for a number of years
as a King's Messenger for the
British Foreign Office, and the
war moved into ar. area which he
knew as well as he knows the
roads of Ontario. A month be-
fore the campaign was under way,
he predicted its development
along the channels we have watch-
ed these last few days. Then one
could turn back and remember
that Professor Salmon's predic-
tions were working out to be one
hundred per cent correct.
You can follow the war with a
greater understanding and a
greater knowledge of what each
move means, by dialing in the
authoritative summing up by
Canada's best informed observer.

ARTICLE No. 10
Gardeners are advised to divide
their vegetable seeds into at least
three parts, sowing a third as
soon as the weal her permits, a
third a little later, and the balance
at the very tail-end of the plant-
ing season. In this way if frost
does cut down the first butch
there will be more plants coming
on and the season will be length-
ened by the last part of the gar-
den sown. Of course there are
ome exceptions to this general
rule. One should not plant out-
aide tender things like tomatoes,
peppei'B, melons, etc., until danger
of frost is over.
Sow Grass Early
Grass makes its most rapid
growth in the cool weather of
Spring and Fall. On this account,
lawn work of a new or repair na-
ture should be carried out just as
soon as the soil is fit to work.
After digging, the ground
should be allowed to settle for a
few days at least, and then level-
led again. It is advisable to re-
peat this process several times.
The top soil should then be raked
fine and on a windless day the
grass sown at a liberal rate, once
across and once lengthwise. This
double sowing insures an even
distribution. It is always best to
get a good mixture of high qual-
ity grass seed blended by expert
Canadian seedsmen.
Good Tool* Help
Experts advise one thorough
digging or spading in the late
Fall or Spring, or if the lot la a
large one it will be better to get
it plowed. Just before either op-
eration, if the ground is poor it
!a n splendid idea to have some
good rotted manure turned under.
After this spading or plowing it
will only be necessary to cultivate
fine with a rake. One thorough
cultivation like this once a year
should keep the soil In shape and
permit one to carry on easily
with 8 small hand cultivator, or
Dutch hoe. Either of these inex-
pensive tools can be operated
without bending the back and
both will be sufficient to keep
the soil stirred and the weeds
down during the remainder of the
season.

THE PRESS AND PROPAGANDA
One of the ever present dangers in
the publishing field is the possibilit"
of becoming a propaganda agency
for some group or cause. Editors
puard carefully against this possibil-
ity and their efforts to be fair some-
times incur the displeasure of those
whose propaganda thev refuse to
propagate. Of course there are two
kinds of propaganda good and bad.
The word propaganda has been much
abused in the past few years and to
the man on the street oropaganda
now seems to mean exclusively
that type of news sent out bv the
enemy to confuse and confound those
who read it
Propaganda is aetuallv the method
adopted for the propagation of doc-
trines and principles, either religious
or secular. If there is such a thing
as gooo propaganda the question
naturally arises, why does the
Bewtpaper not become a propa-
Itanda agency for all propaganda that
fa rood? As a mater of fact the
newspaper does become 8u-> an ag-
ney in a broad senee, but not in
Just the way that some propagandists
would have it. For instance, any re-
Hgious sect might consider its pro^a-
iranda good, and therefore entitled
to space in the newspaper. An im-
portant factor is overlooked how-
ever In this reasoning. Propaganda
espoused and supported by a news-
paper must be of a type generally
beneficial to the community as a
whoK It would not be fair or ethical
to use the propaganda of one church,
where there are perhaps half a dozen
churches in the same community.
Then, to there is often confgusion
In the minds of many pecple as to
vhat is news and what ; - ropaganda.
Tor instance, an item relating to an
actual event which tjok place in a
church, or a lodge, or a service <-lub
would be news. On the other hand
an item which sought to impress the
Teader with the principles or the doc-
trine of the organization would be
propaganda. In ehort propaganda
---- column ----
is that type of newsmatter which
seeks to proselytize or convert the
reader to one particular code of eth-
ics, principles or doctrine.
The position of the newspaper is
clear on this point The newspaper
is representative of the whole com-
munity, and while its editor or pub-
lisher might be an Anglican, Baptist,
Presbyterian, United Churchman, or
Roman Catholic, it would not be fair
to give undue prominence to the doc-
trines of the sect to which he person-
ally belongs. News is another matter.
If more news comes from the United
Church because it has more organ-
izations, or because its press secre-
taries are more wide awake, then
naturally that church would receive
more space in the paper than the
Anglican or Baptist if those churches
were not so well organized or did not
possess good press secretaries.
Weekly newspapers depend to a
very large extent upon correspon-
dents and press secretaries for news
items, and this being: the caae it is
timely to remind correspondents and
secretaries that the newspaper is in-
terested primarily in the news, -and in
acting as an agency for the disemin-
ation of their principles. This reas-
oning however does not prelude the
newspaper drawing attention to any
special effort made by any organi-
zation or institution within the com-
munity.
To sum up the attitude of the press
toward propaganda it should be
clearly understood that the press is
interested in he events concerning
organizations, rather than the ethics
or principles which attract one to
membership in these groups.
NO TIME FOR STRIKES
With the allies locked in a life and
death struggle with Germany this is
no time for a let-down in any of the
essential industries engaged in war
effort. From now on strikes should
be banned, no matter what the merits
of the case. The Government aceed
promptly in the appointment of a
controller to the Hamilton plant of
the National Steel Car Corporation,
Ltd. What strikes the casual ob-
server is the seemingly trivial pre-
texts on which many of the disturb-
ances in war plants are based. With
the boys in the ranks cheerfully
giving up positions in civil life and
carrying on for $1.30 a day, this is
no time for lockouts or strikes.
Workmen are in the enjoyment of
freedom and good wages, and what-
ever disputes arise they should b
---- column ----
adjusted in the spirit of compromise
without any cessation of work. Tho
trouble in some plants seems to be
that both sides, employers on the
one hand and employees on the other,
have been going around with chips on
their shoulders ready for trouble. In
the Hamilton plant the strike was
called over the dismissal of one man
whom the company regarded as an
undesirable character. It is claimed
that no question of wages, hours or
working conditions was involved.
Over this matter, on which would
seem easy of adjustment, a plant
busily engaged in the production of
shells for the British Government
was put out of business for several
days. One cannot imagine the boys
in the ranks going out on strike over
some fancied grievance, and in the
future the Government should stand
prepared to see that workmen in war
plants are not permitted to do so.

THERE IS A WAR ON
The budget has helped to bring
home to many complacent people the
fact that there is a war on. For
some time past not a few people have
been conducting themselves on a high
tide, as if there were no breakers
ahead. The tax on gasoline, enter-
tainment of a sort, travel and even
on hone racing will serve to give
balance. Apart from the present
Provincial tax of about 8 cento a
gallon, it is estimated that the new
Federal impost of 3 cents a gallon
will cost Ontario motorists about
$10,000,000 annually. It is generally
felt that the new gasoline tax will
hinder the flow of American tourists
to Canada, which is rather unfortun-
ate. At first the Government was
inclined to impose a much higher tax
on gasoline with refunds to tourists,
farmers and fishermen, but at the
last moment this was decided against.
While a great many people seem
depressed regarding the new tax it
is pointed out that it will not bring
the price of gasoline to the 1927-28
level. Dealers express the opinion
that the increase of twenty to twenty-
five per cent in the tax on automo-
biles valued up to $900 will have no
noticeable effects on the sale of new
cars.

NEED OF CIVIL GUARD
The Provincial Government is con-
sidering the advisability of augment-
ing the strength of the Volunteer
Civil Guard. The Cards organiza-
tion was launched in June, 1940, and
now must be 42,000 in 24 cities, 96
towns, 17 townships, 10 counties and
81 villages. Primarily the guards
were organized to meet the possible
danger of alien sabotage. Attorney-
General Conant is of the opinion
that the guards are more justified or
even necessary now and for the fu-
ture than in the past. "The develop-
ment in the war and particularly
during recent weeks,'' he said, "makes
it advisable to reconsider the whole
situation wfth a view to the possibil-
ity of future emergencies and the
need for Volunteer Civil Guard."

BACK UP WAR LOAN CAMPAIGN
Premier Hepburn is ranging him-
self wholeheartedly behind the Dom-
inion War Loan Campaign which fa
expected to commence on June 2nd.
He declared thai the seriousness of
the war to Canada cannot be over-
emphasized and it is the duty of
everyone to lend his full support to
the raising of money necessary to
provide planes, tanks, ships, ammuni-
tion and most important of all, to
hack up to the limit the efforts of
those who are fighting our battle. Mr.
Hepburn asks the Mayors of Ontario
to iflsue proclamations urging the
public to decorate their homes and
offices with flngs during the Domin-
ion War Loan Campaign.

Economy
Our Government is asking our citizens to econo-
mize wherever possible in ur daily routine of
living and functions. \Ve can suggest two ways
of economy, namely: by delivering your cream to
the creamery and receiving 1 cent per pound fat
over truck price, and also making use of our cold
storage meat lockers, by freezing your own meat,
which is a big saving on your cost of living.
MEAT STORAGE
A $5.00 box for a year will held approximately
220 to 250 lb. meat and you may refill the box
often as you wish. You may also place meat in
storage at the rate of l l / 2 c per Ib.
; On account of the new government egg regftlations ;
; we must take more time in grading eggs. We are ;
asking you to co-operate with us by bringing your ;
eggs earlier during the day to avoid congestion dur- ;
ing open nigfft. The creamery will remain open each ;
; Wednesday and Saturday night during the summer ;
; NOW r THE TIME THAT THE STORING i
OF M^EAT SHOULD BE IN FULL
PROGRESS.

"Mary Thomas," Ted replied
blankly.
"Well, this Is a Miss Anastasla

Twl gulped. "I'll . . . I'll take It
outside." He hardly heard Mr. Hell-
mail's congratulations rnd pood

said: "Hello ... Oh, hello, Anas-

She was waiting for him on the
porch of Athcrtou Hall, looking
very delectable-. She went quickly
to him and kissed him. "Teddy!

Embarrassed, he Uivw away from

(No. 41)
TWO KINGDOMS
Carolus Linnaeus, J-.e ex-the-
ologicUn, who was the author of
the modern scheme of classifica-
tion of all plants and animals,
lived and did most of his work in
the early part of the eighteenth
century. The book in which he
outlined his plan and named the
animals and plants according to
this plan he called "Systema N'a-
turae" and was revised by him
many times. We have agreed that
our system shall be founded on
the tenth edition of this book and
any names proposed before that
time shall be null and void.
All biologists and naturalists
must be familiar with the Systema
Naturae for it is the backbone of
their scientific work. It is writ-
ten in Latin but fortunately for
many of us it has been translated
into English. However, often
times the naturalist must consult
the original when publishing sci-
antific studies. My Latin is weak
and I have torn my hair many
times trying to get the exact
meaning of the great naturalist's
words. So the moral for my young
readers is to study Lalin as ar-
dently as they study the plants
and animals.
Plant* and Animal*
It is a pity that the same term
u used by the scientist for all
living creatures except plants as
SM used in common language for
the four-footed hairy animals that
suckle their young. The scientist
divides all animate creatures into
either the plant or animal king-
doms. The plant kingdom in-
cludes the bacteria, the blue scum
on the water, the fungi and the
biggest of trees. The animal
kingdom includes the microscopic
creatures of the water, the spong-
es, ths lobsters and crabs, the in-
sects, the fishes, the frogs and
snakes, the birds and the mam-
mals. It is the mammals that the
ordinary folk call animals but my
readers can readily see the dis-
tinction I have outlined. Ani-

"THE HERITAGE OF
HATCHER IDE"
By Booth Tarkington
This new novel from the pen of
Booth Tarkington stands with
the greatest of his work. In it
Che famous author of "Penrod,"
"Seventeen," "Alice Adams,"
deals sympathetically, humorous-
ly with the problems of present-
day youth.
Hatcher Ide, the story's hero,
is a flesh-and-blood youny; man
whose task it is to make a living
in this day and age, to orient
himself in the problems of love
and the general complexities of
existence. He lives in a once-
prosperous mid-western town
which might be any American
town after the l!2i depression
wave broke. His father's busi-
ness is on the rocks; his father's
friends keep up a bold front on /
scanty incomes; the world Hatcher |
knew as a child ii a different ;
world now, none too cordial to j
young men fresh from college.
The book provides an amazing i
picture of the times as well as |
telling us the story of how Hatch- |
er goes out to meet life and love.
"The Heritage of Hatcher Ide"

U.S. FLEET STEAMS NEARER TO BATTLE OF ATLANTIC
---- column ----
As American warships assume their peril-fraught roles of "interested -bystanders" in the Battle of the
Atlantic, the projected two-ocean U.S. Navy U estimated at Washington to be four years away from com-
pletion.
Nevertheless naval authorities are pleased by the way in which th shipyards are cutting consiruction
time. Workmen in the U.S. Navy yards as well as in yards owned by private concerns are driving steadily
ahead as fast as the material is delivered.
A good sample is the 1650-ton destroyer Edison, now in commission. This vessel wa constructed in 10
months. Some years ago the regular period of construction was 31 months. This now has been slashed
until the average is 15 months.
The two most welcome additions to the navy of co urse are the battleships North Carolina and Washington,
the first completed since 1921. They both are 35,000-ton vessels. Their main armament is 16-inch guns,
mounted in three turrets, three per turret. They also carry a heavy battery of anti-aircraft and secondary
broadside guns. They are propelled by turbines developing 115,000 horsepower from oil-fired boilers and
giving a speed of 27 knots. Each is equipped to carry three planes.

THE WAR-WEE K Commentary on Current Events
HIGHEST TAXES LEVIED
IN CANADIAN HISTORY
---- column ----
"We must be prepared for an
extension of fighting over wida
area* . . . Canada is determin-
ed to spare neither her resourc-
es nor her manpower ..."
Prime Minister Mackenzie
King.
Never before ill their History
have Canadians been called upon
to make such a tremwidous contri-
bution to the national coffers as
that demanded by Finance Minister
Ilsley in liis Budget address last
week before the House of Com-
mons. Out of every dollar earned
this year by Canadian men and
women. 45 ceutg will go out of ttieir
pockets by way of taxw or loan to
finance the war. If provincial and
municipal evie-s are also takeu In-
to accoun', 55 cents out of every
dollar will be needed.
Hardest On Income
New and increased taxes design-
ed to increase Canada's tax rev-
enue in 1941-42 to the all-time huh
of $1,400,000,000 Included: A new
national gasoline tax, tipping the
price 3c a gallon; increase In tax
on automobiles valued tip to $900,
from 20 to "5 per cent; motiorv
picture shows, beer, wine, playing
cards, carbonic .icid gas used in
"pop," clgaret paper tubes, cigaret
lighters, Hll pay uew or increased
levies; a 10 per cent tax on all
railway, bus or airplane tickets
costing over 50 cents; tux on cos-
metics, toilet goods, rose from 10
to 25 per cent. But nothing In the
Budget hit the average Canadian
as hard as did the increases in the
defence lax anil lite income taxes
personal income tax rates were
upped to 15 per cent on thd tirot
$1,000 ot taxable income, froui the
present rates of 6 and 8 p<?r cent.
In Britain's Dark Hour
Tliia Hisses t Budget, brought
down at the end ot a month when
the fortunes of Great Britain had
fallen to one* of the lowest points
in her proud record, made history
by including provision, for the first
lim*. of direct aid to Britain. From

Mr. Ilsley'i record-breaker fol-
lowed by one day Prime Minister
King's statement to ths reconven-
ed House in which he declared tuat
Canada would spare neither her
resource* nor her manpower la tUs
forthcoming battle. During' tha
week, too, more than 5,000 of ths
four-month 21-year-old trainee*
were conscripted into tha Canadian
army and preparations wore made
to draft many more young men thlR
summer.
Belt Across Atlantic
But it was larg'ely to the United
State* that Great Britain looked
In her hour of dlre-st nee*. And
last week the President, to lid
Britain by cutting lowes of Lows-
Lend materials shipped overseas
(rumors suid 10 per cant of them
were bciug nunk), took actloa
which brought th American na-
tion "oaily one step from w*r." Hs
establisbt.il the equivalent ot a con-
voy system In the North Atlaatlo.
As far as the coastal waters of lea-
land i a belligerent zone) th U. 8.
ii;ivy began sending warships, pa-
rol bombers and in all probability
carrier-bused aircraft, to play A
vital role iu th "Battle of His
Ati.itufc." The- potential effective-
ness of tbis whole far-flung sur-
face and air patrol In dealing with
is';u! submarine-si and raiders was
seen as tremendous. "Red Fleet,"
organ of the Soviet navy declared
that the extruded U. S. naval patrol
in the Atlantic would enable the
United States and Britain to "es-
tablish a solid belt from Canada
to Britain, tliortnisbly protected
from the air."
Words of Cheer
Speaking more hopefully of ' e
outcome of the Battle of the Balk-
ans than many of liia contempor-
aries, Major Guorge Fielding Eliot,
I'.S. military expert said: "The
facts are that, the Balkan war ha*
lieeu a net gain for .Britain a long
as Suez and Alexandria be not
lost; that i>reclou time has been
gained, that Germany has ben
compelled to usi 1 up resources of
---- column ----
which sue has none too great a
reserve; and that the Island of
Great Britain remains unconquer-
ed. Nor has anything which ham
happened In the Balkans brought
Germany nearer to that conquest;
indeed the reverse is the case. The
war will be won or lost In Great
Britain and its waters of approach;
It Is there- that Hitler must, soon-
er or later, face the final show-
down. It Is precisely there that the
power of the American people can
make Itself felt with full force."
Battle of Egypt
Aside from the Battle ot the At-
lantic the question of where
the war would move next In Eur-
ope engrofised moat minds here
ajid abroad. Prim* Minister
Churchill'* Sunday speech Indicat-
ed that London expected the next
Axis stab to come somewhere along
the Mediterranean, through Tur-
key or Spain. Some exparts belief-
*d Hitler'* armies would play leaip-
frog from one Aegean island to
---- column ----
another and go at Suei without
touching Turkey. One London
source spoke of the coming engage
iinMii. as the "Battle ot Egypt" and
told the United Press Its outcome
might decide whether Japan and
Spain would enter the w*r as ac-
tive Axis allies. Britten prepar-
ations for the teat Included ap-
pointment of Viscount Gort u com-
munder-in-chlef at Gibraltar and
Implied announcement that a sec-
ond Mediterranean mine field, 800,-
000 miles square, had been laid to
protect the Dardanelles and Suez.
Reports from Vichy hinted of an
approaching showdown, with Hit-
ler forcing the Turks to grant him
military right of way to the Per-
sian Gulf of Suez.
Behind the Turks
Recent developments In the Near
East have led to the assumption
that the Turks, when the Hitler-
squeeze finally comes, will be guid-
ed by the wishes of the Soviet Un-
ion. Associated Press correspondent
Dewltt Mackenzie last week wrote
that Turkey was believed ready to
defy the German demands If she got
tha high-sign from tbe Kremlin.
That this encouragement from Rus-
sia might very well be forthcoming
was seen iu reports of increasing
tension between Germany and the
Soviet Union 12,000 German
troope, equipped with tanks and
artillery arrived In Finland, Rus-
sia's nearest northern neighbor;
and the Soviet Union took stops
to regulate strictly all shipment
of goods to Germany, clamping a
ban on passage of any war mater-
ial through the Soviet Union from
east to west, or vice versa.

WOMEN ON JURIES
It seems strange that so simple
a matter as women serving 011
juries should have proven so diffi-
cult for tha legislature to reach
a decision upon. While the men
hesitate, large numbers of women
continue in forthright manner to
shoulder home and public respon-
sibilities, admirably performing
tasks which require the exercia*)
of knowledge, judgment, skill,
precision and tact. Many havs
replaced men in industry, com-
merce, professions, etc., who havs
thus been released for military
service. Many women are doing
work which it was thought only
men could do. Thousands of wo-
men are earning a livelihood for
themselves and supporting do-
pendents and while doing this
are also running their homes,
bringing up children, and in addi-
tion some are active in public
affairs. Toronto Star

Mother's Day
TO MOST of us, our first inspirations to face life squarely, to
find and give the best, have come through the teaching and
example of a good Mother.
It is our Mother who by her unwearying devotion to her
children has instilled into our mindg the virtues of a fu!l and
unselfish life.
All too often as we get older and have to face the responsi-
bilities of life alone, we overlook the debt we owe Mother. W
do not altogether forget. But somehow, there are so many de-
mands on us, we just take Mother for granted. W know Mother'*
love never grows cold. It is there for us to command.
Sunday ii Mother'i Day! Let tu do something this Sunday
to show Mother w think a lot of her. You will never be able to
pay back all you owe her. But soras littls tangible token of your
affection will- feed the soul . . . your own ai weft as your Mother'sl

Rev. D. L. Dinnick is to be chair-
man. It was decided to hold an

amount could be reached, for the'
hearts of the people of the commun-
go out in deep sympathy to that hero"
ic "Front Line" of defenders who are
saving us from those same dangers
and sufferings, > -hich they are so
nobly enduring. We want to help
them.
Mr. Dinnick is in charge of the pro-
gram and we hope to have Jim Hun-
ter here for the occasion as well as
other prominent men. We are en-
deavoring to secure a band from
Cairn Borden and a small military
parade. Refreshments will be serv-
ed by the Ladies' Community Club,
under the direction of Mrs. Alex.

Mr. Geo. Duncan offered to give
freely of his time as auctioneer.
It is to be hoped that the people
who live in this section of Osprey
will "ive sacrifically to this fund and
all of us unite to make it a success.
In the way of donations almost any-
thing of value, large or small will be
acceptable a load of hay or wood,

Feversham Continuation
School Commencement
A large crowd attended the Fever-
sham Continuation School Commence-
ment held in the school on Friday
May 2. Rev. F. Thompson proved
an able chairman, giving a short and
interesting address on the value ot
education.
Musical nunVbers throughout the
programme were of a high order.
The programme opened with a chorus
by the school, "Land of Hope and
Glory". At intervals througnout the
evening a six piece school orchestra
played. Loud applause greeted the
descant," Moonlight and Roses" sung
by twelve girls of the school.
Two plays proved interesting feat-
ures. A three act play, "A ready
Made family" provoked much laught-
er from the audience. A shorter one,
"Buddy Buys An Orchid" was an
amusing satire of the life of teen
age boys and girls.
The presentation of diplomas by
the Secretary of the school, Mr. Har-
vey Pedlar, was an imoortant item
on the program. Moreen Grummett,
Murray Lepard, Bernice Wright,
and Mabel Fenwick. Intermediate
diplomas were presented to >Iina
Douglas, Hazel Magee, Eleanor Me
Kenzie and Annie Radley.
The physical training display, as
usual, proved popular. An Athletic
Dawce was well done by six girls in
yellow and mauve costi'^ies. When
the curtain was drawn for the boys'
work the audience saw a striking
group of boys in white trousers and
sweat shirts with the school crest.
The pyramids and bar-work were
especially good, judging 'from the
applause from the audienc Mr.
McGinnis and Bert Hale, the oldest
and youngest member of the group,
showed that in this school, bar-work
has no limits.
After the chorus, "We'll stick to-
gether," the lengthly program was
brought to a close by singing the
National Anthem.

Jas. Cullen Injured When

Thrown from a wagon while his

Cullen of the East Rackline was se-
verely injured on Monday afternoon
in town. He was driving his team
t-> the shed at the rear of F. G. Kar-
stedtfs store, when they suddenly
became frightened from undisclosed
source and bolted. They grazed a
wagon in the shed to such an extent
that Mr. Cullen was thrown from the
wag in while attempting to ston their
headlong flight. His head struck the
ground with such force that he was
rendered unconscious for several
minutes and received deep cuts and
scratches on his head. He also suf-
fered a broken wrist. He was taken
to Dv. Milne's office and had his
wounds dressed. The horses brought
un with dizzy suddenness when they
came in contact with a tree at the
tennis court, each horse taking a
different route around the tree. The y
went through the wire fence, smashed
an eight inch posl, when they fell on
the cement court and received cuts
>n the head. The tongue of the wa-
<ron was broken. Mr. Cullen was
fortunate that, his injuries were not .
of a more serious nature. Messrs.
F. G. Karstedt and A. R. Ferris were
the only eye witnesses to the run-
away and promptly rendered assist-
ance to the injured man.

Our Government is asking our citizens to econo-

living and functions. We can suggest two ways
of economy, namely: by delivering your cream to
the creamery and receiving 1 cent per pound fat
over truck price, and also making use of our cold
storage meat lockers, by freezing your own meat,
which is a big saving on your cost of living.
MEAT STORAGE
A $5.00 box for a year will hold approximately
220 to 250 Ibs. meat and you may refill the box
often as you wish. You may also place meat in
storage at the rate of iVzc per Ib. m
On account of the new government egg regulations
we must take more time in grading eggs. We are
asking you to co-operate with us by bringing your
eggs earlier durincr the day to avoid congestion dur-
ing open night. The creamery will remain open each
Wednesday and Saturday night during the summer
NOW IS THE TIME THAT THE STORING
OF MEAT SHOULD BE IN FULL
PROGRESS.

BROADENING CHRISTIAN
HORIZONS SAUL'S
CONVERSION
AcU 9: 1-31
PRINTED TEXT, Acts 9i 1-16
GOLDEN TEXT I ,., not di.-
obedient unto the heavenly vision.
Acts26:l!i.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time The conversion of Saul
took placu probably in A.D. 30,
and later events in this chapter
are believed to have occurred In
AiD. 37 and 38.
Place The city of Damascus
was approximately 1DO milei
northeast of Jerusalem, in Syria {
the city of Tarsus was located in
the southeastern part of Asia
Minor, on the Cydnus River, ten
miles from the scacoast.
Christ's soldiers are His cap-
tured enemies. Kvpry soul won
from resistance to the cross is
sent out into the field to win
others. Of this the most noble
instance in Christian history is
the conversion of Saul. Jesus
Christ never encountered a bit-
terer nor an abler foe; Jesui
Christ never won a mightier cap-
tain for His army of light.
The Zealous Persecutor
Acts 9:1. "But Saul, yet breath-
ing threatening and slaughter
against the disciples of the Lord,
went unto the high priest, 2. And
asked of him letters to Damascus
unto the synagogues, that If ha
found any that were of the Way,
whether men or women, he might
bring them bound to Jerusalem."
The reason he would bring them
to Jerusalem was to make sure
that they would be put to death,
for, though they might be pun-
ished by scourging or in some
other way in other cities, it would
be only in Jerusalem that a Jew-
ish convert would be condemned
to death.
(Saul, like the Saul of the Old
Testament, was of the tribe of
Benjamin, and had come from hi*
home at Tarsus, in Asia Minor,
to sit at the feet of the great
Jewish teacher, Gamaliel. Saul
was a Hebrew of the Hebrews,
equipped with an excellent Greek
education, and a freed man in
the Roman Empire).
The Voice From Heaven
3. "And as he journeyed, it
came to pass that he drew nigh
unto Damascus: and suddenly
there shone round about him a
light out of heaven." Later we
are told that the time of the day
was "about noon" when the vision
was seen and Paul says that at
midday the light was "above the
brightness of the sun." 4. "And
he fell upon the earth, and heard
a voice saying unto him, Saul,
Saul, why persecutes! thou me?
5. And he said, Who art thou,
Lord? And he said, I am Jesus
whom thou persecutes! :" Our
Lord doc.1 not call himself Mes-
siah, Son of Man, or Son of God,
but Jesus of Nazareth, the man
who was crucified. He recalls to
Saul's mind His humiliation, suf-
fering, and death all stumbling
blocks to the Pharisee; for what
Paul had to be taught was that
Jesus of Nazareth was the Christ.
C. "But rise, and enter into
the city, and it shall be told thee
what thou must do." Saul had
received all that he could bear
just now. Human agents, like
Ananias, could finish what Jesus,
by supernatural manifestation,
had horn begun In Saul.
Saul's New Life
"And the mm Hint journeyed
with him stood speechless, hearing
the voice, but beholding no man.
8. And Saul arose from the
earth; and when his eyej were
'j-n.ncii, he saw nothing; and they
JoJ him by the hand, and brought
him to Damascus. !'. And he
was three days without sight, and
in neither. eat nor drink." How
quickly things can change in one's
life. A man tan be in the glow
of health one clay, and )> pros-
trate on a bed of illness the next.
Saui, this morning, was the furi-
ous loadm 1 of a terrible persecu-
tion. Niw, like a child, blind, ha
U led into the city. No wonder
Saul neither ate nor drank dur-
ing those three day*, which must
have meant days of storm, and
suffering, turmoil, and readjuRt-
9>nt within his .strong and tem-
pea'ihri- naluu-
"A Ckol.n Vessel"
10. "Now there was a certain
disciple a-t Damascus, named An-
anias; and the Lord said unto
bim in a vision, Ananias. And
be said, Hthoid. I HIM lien , l.oril."
Aiutn lat- wax a Christian Jew or
Damascus. He must have held a
leading position in the local
Christian assembly; our ).!
elected him as His agent of com-
OHimcation when dunlin'.' with this
iew convert. 11. "And the Lord
laid unto him, Arise, and go to
Uiu street which in called Straight,
And inquire in the house of Judas
for one nnnied Saul, a man of
Tarsus: for behold, he prayethj
12. And he hath seen a man
named Ananias coming in, and
laying his hand on him, tli.it he

Excessive Mental
Effort Harmful
It's More Likely Than Hard
Phyiical Labor to Cauie
Hardening of the Arteries
That excessive mental work U
more likely than hard physical la-
bor to cause arteriosclerosis
hardening of the arteries and that
more men than women suffer from
that malady, were among the recent
statements made by a physician
connected with the Health League;
of Canada.
A well-established condition of
arteriosclerosis Is made apparent
by the rigid and tortuous condition
of the arteries which, to the> touch,
feel like a string of beads, said
the speaker. The earlier symptoms
are less definite and often are so
slight as to pass unnoticed.
These symptoms, he pointed out,
arise from a diminished blood sup-
ply, resulting from tbe thickened
condition of the artf rie which re-
duces their inner capacity. Natur-
ally, symptoms vary according U
the parts of tu body which are
being deprived of a normal blood
supply.
Thus, If tbe arteries supplying
the brain are affected, there will
be Increasing loss of mentor/, In-
ability to sleep properly, defective-
ness of Judgment, Irritability and

Gardening . . .
---- column ----
ARTICLE NO. 11
---- column ----
There is nothing to equal the
taste of vegetables that have just
reached the proper maturity and
art fresh from the garden. But
f&r too few people with plenty
of vegetable garden right at their
door get the full benefit of this
freshness. In most cases there
are a few meals of green peas,
baby carrots and beets, new po-
tatoes and corn, and that is all.
Either the rows are finished or
else there is nothing left but ma-
tured vegetables, which should
have been eaten days or weeks
be-fore, when they were full of
flavor." With a little foresight
and planning, however, these un-
fortunates could jii.-t as easily
have had really fresh vegetables
coming on all through the Sum-
mer. They could extend even the
green pea season to over a month,
could have fresh corn from early
Summer until almost Christmas.
Spreading Out Season
There are two ways to achieve
th! objective. First, the planting
season can be spread over several
. weeks. Experts advise making at
least three sowings of practically
all vegetables, the first a week or
so before the regular time, the
second at -the regular time and
the third a week or ten days later.
Second, by buying early, med-
ium and later maturing varie-
ties still more length can be add-
ed. With almost all standard
vegetables there are varieties that
are really days or weeks before
the average, and also others much
later. By sowing both kinds and
also a medium one, the season ia
greatly lengthened.
Garden Picture*
Ona can do wonders with
flowers alone, but still more amaz-
ing results will follow where wa
combine flowers skilfully with
grass, winding walks, shrubbery
and bits of stonework. In this
combining, however, we must take
care not to reproduce a jungle.
Flowers and shrubbery must not
be so crowded that they become
spindly and weak.
Little flowers must not be hid-
den by tall things like full size
marigolds, cosmos or zinnias.
Beds must be so arranged that w
can keep down weeds and remove
fading foliage. Above all we
must remember that unless we are
skilful it is beat to use a fair
amount of lawn as a foreground
for our flowers. Lawns are almost
vital in creating garden pictures.

Five Quarts of Blood Per Per-
son: Two-fifths Red Cede
---- column ----
You have, if you are a person
of about average size and weight,
about half a bucket of blood ia
your body a little over five
quarts. About two-fifth* of thii
re the red blood cells, writes Dr.
Logan Clendening. They float,
pretty widely separated, in the
serum, but if packed down they
would constitute about two-fifths
of the entire volume. The rest
of the blood it the plasma, or
aerum, which ;s a clear, yellow-
ish fluid.
A chemist estimates that in thii
half-bucket of blood there it dis-
solved a tcaspoonful of sugar and
a tablespoon of ordinary table
salt, and about a tablespoonful of
sodium bicarbonate or ordinary
baking soda. There are about six
5-grain capsules of .nitrogenous
products in the blood, and about
1/100 of a grain of iodine. There
ie from a te-aspoonful to a table-
spoonful of fat.
These substances are all in a
state of flux and it is, indeed, a
very busy chemical factory. These
substances are, of course all der-
ived from the food. After diges-
tion they are carried to the liver
most of them and there chang-
ed into forms which the cells can
utiiijf. Some part ' of them ii
stored in the liver and the rest
released in the blood stream.

The new drink offers two tools

AIR-RAID DEATH CAUSES
Peculiar and unexplained ef-
fects of air-raid explosions were
discussed at a recent meeting of
the Royal Academy of Medicine
in London. Professor Geoffrey
Hadfield reported that in thirty
autopsies he had made of air-raid
fatalities eight cases showed no
external causes of death. In some
eases air passages in the lungs
were filled with blood, but there
was no sign of rupture of the
lungs. There was, however, a
high degree of- carbon-monoxide
saturation in the blood. Profes-
sor S. Zuckcrman, of Oxford, re-
ported that it has been known
since the Spanish civil war that
blasts of high explosives could kill
or Injure people without causing
external injuries.

\
Q. How can I keep a house
plant supplied with water, when
foing away for a few days?
A. Soak a large sponge well
with water and place it on the
dirt in the pot. The plant will
absorb enough water to keep it
fresh until you return.
Q. How can I clean smeary ma-
aogany furniture?
A. First sponge with a cloth
dipped in a solution of hot water
and vinegar, and then with a
loth dipped in a pint of warm
water to which one teaspoon each
f linseed oil and turpentine has
bn added. Follow this by pol-
ahing with a soft, dry cloth.
Q. How can I prevent cauli-
flower from darkening when be-
ing boiled?
A. Add a slice of lemon to the
water.
Q. How should I dye a sweater?
A. Remove the buttons before
dyeing a tweater. Then weigh
the garment while it is dry.
Enough dye should be bought to
eolcr the number of pounds the
article weighs. A sweater will
not take a good color with insuffi-
cient dye.

Etiquette
BY ROBERTA LEE
---- column ----
1. When a house guest has
permission from her hostess to in-
vite a friend to dinner, or some
other affair, by whom should the
invitation be extended?
2. What should one do when
he finds that another person,'!
opinion is directly opposed to hia
own?
3. What is considered the beat
decoration for any room of the
house?
4. What is the correct way for
a man to lift a soft, hat when
speaking to a girl?
5. Isn't it very unwise for a
girl to write some words of en-
dearment on a photograph of her-
self that she is giving to a young
man?
6. Shouldn't one be grateful
when a friend has pointed out to
him a very glaring fault that
should be corrected?
Answer*
1. All H Citations should come
from the hostess. 2. Change the
subject of conversation. Above
all, do not argue. 3. Freshly-cut
flowers, attractively arranged
will outrank any other decoration.
4. The hat should be lifted by the
crown, not the brim. And above
all, the hat should be^ lifted slight-
ly, not merely a touch of the
brim. 5. Yes; it is very unwise.
She may regret it many times in
the future. 6. Yes. But. sad as
it seems, resentment instead of
gratitude is usually the effect,
and very often a lost friendship.

Now's Best Time
To Sow Potatoes
Plant Them Before May 18th
Later Planting* Result hi
Lower Yields. Ontario Dept,
of Agriculture Tests Show
---- column ----
Whe-n is the proper time to plant
potatoes?
Results of experiments conducted
in Middlesex and South Slmcoe In-
dicate that from the 18th to the
25th of May is the most desirable
time to plant, says the Ont. Dept.
of Agriculture. These results are
supported by similar finds at the
Ontario Agricultural College,
Guelph. and the Central Experi-
mental Farm, Ottawa.
The tests showed that potatoes
planted May 18th, yielded 274 bush-
ete of marketable potatoes per acre.
The yield dropped to 248 bushe'.s
per acre when planted May 25th.
and 224 bushels when planted June
i. Potatoes planted June 10th show-
ed an average of only 198 bushels
per acre.
SPRAYING AND DUSTING
The value of proper and consis'-
en! spraying has also become an
established fact. Spray and dust
experiments with potatoes at Ridge-
town Experimental Farm for eight
successive years have shown that
plots thoroughly sprayed and dust-
ed five times during the growing
eabou. gave an average increased
jleld of approximately 28 per cent
more marketable potatoes than un-
sprayed or undusted plots.
There is no staple article of food
brought into the average home
that has greater appeal to the
housewife than Rood, bright, clean
potatoes of a uniform size and free

The Function of An
Editor
---- column ----
The title "editor" is sometimes mis-
ndorstood by newspaper readers,
Hot because they want to misunder-
(;. i but because they have never
fcec-n told just what the functions are
of '''.e person who holds this title. An
(!.. . o, to explain it briefly, is one who
an ; Tintends, revises or prepares lit-
erary matter for publication. The ti-
tle does not necessarily mean that the
policy of the newspaper is set or con-
trolled by the editor. The duties of
the other editors, city, sport, subur-
ban, women's page and others, is sim-
ply to carry out the duties prescribed
in their particular spheres.
For our purpose, however, we must
deal with the editor in a little differ-
ent light, because in fully 9<K'r of
Canada's weekly newspapers, the ed-
itor is also the publisher. In other
v^ds he fills the dual role of pre
r '-g literary matter for publica-
tion, and of deciding upon policy as
well. We want to deal with the func-
tions of an editor from this stand-
point.
Essentially the editor is a human
being, writing and dealing with men,
women and children. He may be
young or old. lazy or cnergetoic, bold
or timid, superficial or deep, queru-
lous or constructive, slovenly or bus-
iness-like, grasping or generous. He
Is certain to he human. He reacts to
praise and criticism, to good and evi'
in much the same way as th->se who
share community life with him. The
editor, and this is true of 99 P 4 of al
$"Vly editors, recognizes the inher-
e Vcency of the cotmtrvside. He
1* till sufficiently old-fashioned to
believe with his readers thnt the Ten
Commandments nnd the Golden Rule
have either been repealed, improver
upn or modified bv modern advances
The editor is a student of cornmnn
ity affairs. He has at his disposa.
records of public "reanizations in the
community, and it is from hi? study
of _ these records that he makes hi
editorial comment. He is not easiK
swayed hy the Jivsterias which sway
nn'l excite and mislead peonlp
LiVe the people he serves he use;
p* n <l connonsense in his rensonintr.
It Is the Editor who decides wha
is and not fit to print. It is
h i differentiates between news
' "opncanda. It is he who can. r
IIP will, give the leadership tha
jvo-y energetic community mus
ravo. He is not hnrd to get along
with, hut he has a code of ethics
wh'rh often cause him to refuse bus-
fcjfH rather than accept it against
Well grounded principles. He is not
suner-humnn. H<> is a hard-work-
lri) individual doing nn important job
In 0U community to the best of his
hil'fy. and If at times he fails in his
Mt. it must be remembered that he
I* like every other human beine in
Inn Community, heir to the frailties
With which all mankind is endowed.

CANADA NEEDS
MORE SHEEP
At a time when Canada is looking
n vain for export markets and etag-
gcring under the burden of farm-
rnnving surpluses it is startling to
earn that out of the 80 million
mils of wool used annually in Can-
ida only about lit million pounds
came from the backs of saeep grown
n this country. Here in this climate
*oollen goods are a vital necessity,
jarments made of this material are
<>st hcathful and most comfortable,
n spite of that we have been import-
ng, largely in the manufactured form
upproximately 7 pounds of wool out of
pvery 8 pounds.
More than that Canadian eonsump-
on would probably take care of
another 6 million pounds of lamb an-
mally. We could not increase lamb
narketings freely and carelessly with-
out disturbing other branches of the
ive stock industry; but statistics in-
licate tha sheep husbandry in Can-
ada could be enlarged substantially
without interfering seriously with
attle, swine or poultry.
Canada has had approximately the
aim' sheep population for half a
century, bpt never before was there
he same necessity for adapting pro-
luction to the inescapable needs of
the Canadian people.

HERE'S WHY:

Plo-glaze Palm is made with a specially treated linseed oil which
makes it flow evenly and smoothly and leave no brush marks.
Brush marks are really hundreds of tiny grooves in a paint film
These grooves collect and hold dirt, which spoils the appearance of
your paint job, and may cause early peeling and cracking.
When you paint with Flo-glaze there is no place for din to lodge
on the perfectly smooth paint filtn and any surface dust is washed
dean by the rains.
Flo-glaze has good covering and hiding powers. Keeps fresh-looking
fix long years of wear. Thai's why we say it "has what it takes to give
700 a real job!"

In Every Hundred
One Is Stutterer
Defect Usually Develops In
Fifth Grade of Public Schools
Boys Suffer Oftener
Prof. Harry J. Heltman o<
Syracuse University believe* there
Is little if any truth in the saying
that left-handed children, who
later were taught to use their
rijrht hands-, are stutterers.
Heltman, chairman of the
School of Speech and Dramatics
at Syracuse, told a local Science
forum that of 1,600 tested stud-
ents entering Syracuse, only one
of 77 who had their handedness
Hanged, was afflicted.
Heltman said there are about
1,800,000 persons in the United
States who stutter. The ratio ia
ene stutterer among every 100
persons.
MORE BOYS STUTTER
"It Is interesting to note," he
added, "that stuttering is likely
to develop in children during !he
fifth grade in school when they
are about 11 years old. It is also
difficult to explain," he added,
"why boys have a greater ten-
dency to stutter than girls."
Prof. Heltman said-there arc at
least three times as many boys
afflicted as are girls.

U. S. PREPARES TO FIGHT
FOR DEMOCRACY AGAIN
---- column ----
"Freedom of democracy In
the world ... la the kind of
faith for which we have fought
before, for the existence of
which we are ever ready to
fight again." U. S. President
Roosevelt.
The story of last we*k's> develop-
ments In the war abroad was punc-
tuated on this side of the Atlantic
by a series of sharp, ''more action"
utterances which cunie from the
lips of tb key men In Ui Roose-
velt Cabinet and from the Presi-
dent himself.
In a speech dedicating UK a
ahrlne the birthplace of Great War
Pereldent Woodiow Wilson, Mr.
Iloosevelt clearly annunciated the
.American decision "we are ever
ready to fight again, for the free-
dom of democracy in the world."
Calling For "More Action"
Jjiet weak as the T"nHf>d .States
stood on the brink beforu derlar-
log formal war on tho Axl, the
United Press published a review
of some of the significant state-
ment made within the previous
month by responsible U. S. Govern-
ment officials aud Influential lead-
ers. It showed how "stop-by step"
the United States had been ab-
andoning Its non-belligerent policy
and preparing for Intervention on
the side of Britain:
April 9 (Maritime Commission
Chairman Emory S. Land) "In '
the field of flipping aid to Britain,
there Is a huge bonfire burning
the submarine menace . . . We
might well auk onrselvoe In our
all-out aid to Britain If we. could
not give greater help by aiding the
British to put ou', the fire rather
than by concentrating mot of our
efforts on feeding It with fuel."
April 24 (Secretary of State Cor-
dell Hull) "It IB high tlui- that
the remaining free countries
should arm to the fullest extent and
Jn the brlofost time humanly poa-
siblo and act for their se.lf-i . -i -r-
vatlon . . . Aid (to Britain) must
reach Its destination In the short-
est time In maximum quantity. So
wnye miiBt be found to do thlt."
"Make Promite Good"
April 24 (Secretary of the Navy
Frank Knox) "We have (livlared
that the fight that Kngland is mak-
ing Is our fight . . . Having gone
thus far wo ranuot back down . . .
Hitler cannot allow our waf sup-
plies anil food to reach England
n will bft defeated If they do. Wo
cannot allow our Koods to be sunk

April 39 (President Roosevelt)
"Legal authority exist* to send

lly mean such action will be- tak-
en."
Course Chosen
April 29 (Secretary of Commerce
Jwsse Jones) "We have chosen
our course ... to give all possible
aid to those countries which are
fighting to preserve their Inde-
pendence ami our way of life . . .
more sacrifice* are In store for u.''
April HO (President Roosevelt)
"\V must fight this threat (of a*
iTcssion) wherever it appears . . ."
A Critical Situation
May 2 (President Roosevelt)
"Arms production must be stepped
up to meet the wer-increasiiig de-
mands for munitions, planes and
"hips, caused by the critical situa-
tion which confronts our nation."
May S (Wendell Wlllkle) "The
8ia:p of sinking* Is so serious ih.it
we should protect our cargoes of
arms and foods to England."
May 4 President Roosevelt's
statement quoted at the head of
this column.
May 5 (President Roosevelt)
"Command of (lie air by the democ-
iii. I s must and can be achieved."
(Increased production of henyy
bombers had been ordered.)
May E (House Naval Affairs Com-
mittee Chairman Carl Vluson
"I am for convoys now."
May 6 i lle.p. E. E. Cox. Dem.,
Georgia) "Of course we are
going to convoy and we are going
to convoy right away."
"Shall We Now Flinch?"
May 8 (Secretary of War Henry
S'imson) "Shall we now flinch
niul permit our billions of dollars
wiTth of munitions to be sunk In
tlii' Atlantic? Jf today the t'liited
St'ites Nnvy should make secure

Ions to Britain, It will render as

try and to the preservation of Am-
erican freedom an It has ever ren-

Supplementing the efforts of the

racies are completed."
Mediterranean Crlsla
f- .ill' - the crisis In the Hal tie
of the Atlantic, new threats wore
developing for Britain In the Mixll-
trrraneun basin in North Africa,
where tho Herman army was re-
ported Htroitgly reinforced prepar-
---- column ----
atory to concurrent drives toward
Suez and the Atlantic; and in oil-
rich Iraq, Britain's air bos for
the whole Middle East, where Nazi-
inspired revolt flared, appeared to
be in danger of spreading to en-
velop neighboring Arab countries.
In the latter case the possibilities
would have to be taken into con-
sideration, that a vast Arabian
force would be thrown against the
British In the Near Kast; thai tne
Axis powers would gain the bases
they needed to develop ihelr drive
from the east against the Suei
Canal and Egypt; that Britain
would lose ess-iit In! oil pipeline*
which feed her Mediterranean
fleet.
Smoking Out Turkey
Til, in y was In a worse spot than
Yer la^t week. Following the occu-
pation by Germany of more Greek
Islands in the Aegean, Associated
Press" Kh HI- Simpson wrote: "Tur-
key U menaced by the possibility
of air bombardment or invasion
from her Black Sea front to her
southern ccaotline In the eastern
Mediterranean it ehe resists
mounting Nazi pressure to abandon
her British alignment. Her eastern
frontiers aud contacts with her
British allies are menaced by the
Anglo-Iraq conflict, and she Is re-
ported also hastily reinforcing her
defence on the Turkish-Iran border
In fear that the war in Iraq may
spread in that direction." (Study
of the map recommended).
The Waking Bear
On May Day, while signs multi-
plied of increasing tension in
Hn: -., lt , ; man relations, the De-
fence Commissar of the Soviet Un-
ion S. K. Tlmoshenko issued a
warning that Russia had reorganiz-
ed her nrmed forces "In the' light
of experience and modern war-
fare" and was ready for any "sur-
prised." He declared that the U. 8.
S. R. was ready to "offer an anni-
hilating re-buff to any encroach-
ments by Imperialists." That same
week Josef Stalin became Premier
of the Soviet Union, a sign that
Russia was consolidating h>-r \ . i
strength for the days that lay
ahead.
Reports emanating from Vichy
told of a huge "about face" of Rus-
sia's military strength and a shift-
ing of large land, sea and air !'
southward toward the Balkan and
Nflor Eastern frontiers. Although
the reports contained no bint of
any kind of Impending Soviet mil-
itary action they were descrlhed
In Vichy aa revealing a general
"jockeying for position" through-
out the Near Kast from the s lllack
Sea to the Persian Gulf. The Sov-
iet High Command also was said
to have decided on an extensive
reinforcement of its fleets In tho
Black Sea and Caspian due, accord-
ing to some versions, to the pres-
ence of Italian and Germim naval
forces in that urea. Theso Russian
naval forces, mostly 'transf. -rn-il
fnim the Baltic, were beli.'ved to,
include submarine!! and torpedo
boats.

Absent-minded Lady
Gets Enormous Order
When a busy West Branch,
N.Y. housewife sent her neigh-
bor's 10-year-cld son to the gro-
cer's, she received more of a'l
order than she bargained for.
She handed the boy a list of
the articles she wanted as fol-
lows: 1 bottle vanilla. 1 can bak-
ing powder, 5 pounds sugar, 2
bars soap.
Absently, the housewife check-
ed off the lis: with her pencil.
"One, two, three, four items,'' she
said, writing the figure* down at
the side ff the list. Completely
to her surprise, she received the
following: 11 bottles of vanilla,
21 cans of baking powder, 35
pounds of sugar, and 42 cakes of
soap.

To Our Babie* Children'*
Tendency to Experiment
Leads to Dangerous Situa-
tions Which Must Be Avoided
---- column ----
Accidents, not mumps, meaale*
or pneumonia, take the heavy toll
of our children today. Accident*
are the leading cause of death
among children between 4 and 10
and rank second for children be-
tween 2 anu 4.
Most frequent causes of acci-
dents at home are suffocation,
burns, poisoning, cuts, drownings
and falls. Many of these could
be prevented by simple precau-
tion and ever-watchful care.
The young child is a great ex-
perimenter. If he sees mother
take something from the medicine
chest, he may drink it, or even try
to use daddy's razor. The best
way to prevfent such accidents U,
of course, to keep such things out
of baby's reach.
OUT OF CHILD'S REACH
Mothers shojild keep handy an-
tidotes for all poisons. If the
child swallows poison or some
harmful substances, administer the
antidote at once and then call
yt-ur doctor immediately.
Bed covers should be arranged
in such a way that they cannot
be pulled over the baby's head.
Too many deaths are caused from
suffocation and can be avoided by
careful attention and the use of
simple devices to prevent such
accidents. These can be obtained
in your local stores.
Leave no unprotected places
such as the head of staircase, an
open window, porch or fire place
into which toddlers might tumble.
Safety doors or playpens may be
bought or built cheaply. They
may save your child from break-
ing a bone or even from death.
